Microsoft are changing Office Live documents in SkyDrive to resemble the Metro interface, they have also started offering you the option to opt in to a preview of the new Office Web Apps. I currently embed spreadsheets into my WordPress site.

I decided to opt in and then found that any new items I went to embed simply didn't appear. I noticed that the url Microsoft provide you with for the preview has changed and no longer starts http://r.office.microsoft.com, but starts skydrive.live.com and I think WordPress doesn't know yet how to interpret it.

Giving you the heads up in case this becomes a wholesale change and all of a sudden WordPress user's can no longer embed documents/spread sheets etc.

The issue is I was using the Office Web Apps preview in SkyDrive. I turned off the Office Web Apps preview and now it works like it should. Something to keep in mind for the future when SkyDrive Office Web Apps get upgraded. The url will use skydrive.live.com instead of r.office.microsoft.com. Thanks for your help!

If you aren't able to get an embed code with 'r.office.microsoft.com' in the URL, we'll need to update the way our shortcode for SkyDrive works.

Thanks!

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble. Hopefully we can help you sort this out.

Currently, our SkyDrive embed only supports iframe's with r.office.microsoft.com as part of the URL. In the code you posted above, the URL is skydrive.live.com.

I am curious how you generated that skydrive embed URL? I just logged on to SkyDrive, created a new PowerPoint document and clicked on 'File > Embed this Presentation' and the code it generated for me was at r.office.microsoft.com and I was able to embed it properly at WordPress.com.

Since the instructions vary slightly for PowerPoint documents vs. Excel documents, I've created a new support document at the following url:

Can you please try again with the instructions provided?

WordPress.com is a type of shared environment, where all users are running off of the same software. This is great because it allows us at Automattic to update millions of blogs at the same time with a single click. It means we can fix bugs or offer new features very quickly, which is a win for you as users. Having all users running on the same software can also be dangerous. If we aren’t careful, one user has the potential to take down the entire site. So this is why we need to limit some of the things you post on your blog.
…
If you wrote some code or pasted it in from another web site and then it disappeared after publishing the post, the code is likely being stripped out.

and

If you are familiar with HTML, you’ll notice that codes such as embed, frame, iframe, form, input, object, textarea and others are missing

It is removing it when I do that. If I switch from the text tab back to the visual tab before hitting update I can see the yellow box for it, but as soon as I hit update it disappears. Also if I preview before hitting update it does not show in the preview.
