Google Doc Embedder Not Working

    Google Doc Embedder isn’t working for me. This is the third WP plugin I’ve tried in my effort to get my PDF file to SHOW, rather than the URL for it showing, and none of them have worked. Here is the page. All it shows is the URL. I want it to show the PDF, not the URL: http://independentteaparty.com/re-register-to-vote-here/

    Also I have a couple other posts in the forum, asking for help, but I can’t find them now. I thought I would have links in my profile to the posts I’ve made but it only shows me stuff that is a year old. I asked for help just a couple weeks ago. Not showing. Might WP Helpers have deleted my cries for help because I am annoyed and felt comfortable showing my annoyance? I’m wondering how I’m supposed to get help here, when I can never find my own posts or the replies that might (or might not) be there waiting for me to read them. Yes, I always check “Let me know when there are replies”.

    Thanks. Ideally, I want to get the PDF doc embedder working. I’ve been working on it for more than an hour and I’m not used to such a failure rate on WP websites I work on. Thanks.

    Never mind. I figured it out.

    What I did was clicked on the URL, because that’s all I could get to show up on my page. That loaded the file so I could see it. Then I right clicked and selected “Inspect Element” and copied and pasted that URL into my page using the “Text” editor. That worked.

    It didn’t work the way the plugin info said it would, though. Whatever. It works now.

    Don,

    Sorry for your frustration, and annoyance. I didn’t see any earlier threads by you or I would have done my best to respond to them. I agree that’s odd that you can’t see them now but moderator conspiracy might be a bit of a jump.

    The page you link to doesn’t use GDE so there’s not much left for me to help you with. If you decide you do want to try to use the plugin, I’m happy to assist you. Let me know exactly what problem you’re having.

    Thanks,

    Kevin
