Gmodules - a thing of the past
Sozidoc Sozidoc 10 Sep 2016 13:11

unfortunately, Google stopped serving those goodies.

Maybe this snippets should be rested?

Regards,

Christina


I think the core lessons are: be patient, don't give up, and always be learning.
(Thanks to Pieter Hintjens. It's all the more important today.)

Site counters: You need to use "embed" for a site statistic..
habe a look at our howto: http://community.wikidot.com/howto:site-statistics perhapsthis helps.

You shoud read our handbook too.

There is no automatic converter of html code into wiki code.
But what you can do is to use the html code in an "iframe" on a wiki page:

Gadget Problem
Gareth Barry Gareth Barry 19 Nov 2008 15:47

I experienced the same problem as urkayla01. Even the clock example at the top doesn't even work. It appears as if the page has not been changed at all.

Re: Gadget Problem
Gareth Barry Gareth Barry 19 Nov 2008 15:53

Ok, I think I found the solution. bobstrenger said you had to save the edit to see a gadget. I had to save the edit and then refresh my page to see the gadget. Hope this helps someone…

urkayla01 urkayla01 23 Aug 2008 03:41

if you embed it on a wiki page and it doesn't show up at all, what does that mean? it usually gives some kind of error sign but i get nothing when i put this in.

Google AJAX Search
WikiNora WikiNora 24 Jun 2008 20:12

Hi,

I tried to insert the code for the Google News bar, but it doesn't work!
I get the message: Sorry, no match for the embedded content.
Any clue?

The code can be found here

Thanks

I experimented and found a solution:

When you get a code from google, you something like:

<script src="http://gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http://www.google.com/ig/modules/datetime.xml&up_color=red&synd=open&w=320&h=136&title=Date+%26+Time&border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&output=js"></script>

Which does work.

Hope this helps,

Google new chart gadgets do not work. Here is example
Witness Witness 24 May 2008 12:54

This is the code generated by Google:
<script src="http://spreadsheets.google.com/gpub?url=http%3A%2F%2F88sui90i-a.gmodules.com%2Fig%2Fifr%3Fup__table_query_url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fspreadsheets.google.com%252Ftq%253Frange%253DG3%25253AG20%2526key%253DpC9bbqlpYXYrIUsjfiPcmYA%2526gid%253D0%2526pub%253D1%26up_title%3D%26up_labelx%3D%26up_labely%3D%26up_legend%3D4%26up_3d%3D1%26up_stacked%3D0%26up__table_query_refresh_interval%3D0%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.google.com%252Fig%252Fmodules%252Fcolumn-chart.xml&height=357&width=450"></script>

[[if i place it in "embed" tags - it produces: Sorry, no match for the embedded content.
If I place it in a plain file inside "body" tags- it works just fine.

You must be filtering out google spreadsheet gadgets. Let it though, please.

Thank you.

What do you mean by…"If I place it in a plain file inside "body" tags- it works just fine."? I'm stuck on the "Sorry, no match for the embedded content."

Thanks!

@ steinargj

Try this instead:

[[/embed]]

I plugged your code into http://snippets.wikidot.com/code:iframe-embed to get that code block I just gave you.

Can't Get Code to Work!!!
bobstrenger bobstrenger 18 Oct 2007 05:51

tsukechick,

Not sure if you'll see this, but I had the same problem. The thing I discovered is that these google gadgets don't appear in the "Preview" mode in a Wiki. You have to first do a "Save" and then you should see the gadget work on your Wiki.

Hope this helps…
