   I have some videos from the site http://fora.tv that I'd like to embed in my site. But every time I paste the embed code, wordpress mangles it. Is there a way to embed videos from this site?

   The blog I need help with is scifund.wordpress.com.

   Please post an active link starting with http:// for the blog in question so we can verify whether or not it is a free hosted WordPress.com blog. If it is a free hosted WordPress.com blog then have you tried using Vodpod?

   Thanks for the link. Please check out the information at the links I posted above. :)

   P.S. Linking your WordPress.com username to your blog is easy to do. Dashboard -> Users -> Personal Settings -> then scroll down to Account Details. Then scroll down to where it says ‘Website‘ select the URL for your primary wordpress.com blog and then save changes.

   Now every time you sign into the forum we can all click on your username and your blog will be linked to it. And every time you leave a comment on a blog your username can be likewise clicked and your blog can be instantly located.

   Thanks. I'm trying to get it to run through vopod, but vopod will only take the first 10 minutes of the video, and the bit I I want is a good hour in. Hrm. I'll see if I can find another way, I guess.
