Inserting Calameo docs

You can insert Calameo docs, by turning the original embed code into the appropriate shortcode.
(For more on this, see The gigya shortcode: inserting Flash. Also note that Calameo provide their own “WordPress” shortcode, but that shortcode doesn’t work.)

Select doc, click Share. Copy HTML code (old version). Keep this part only:

Turn it to this:

[gigya src=”ETC ETC ETC ETC” ]

Paste into HTML post or page editor (or into a text widget for your sidebar). Dimensions can be changed.

Example:

Please don’t paste code in comments – see comment guidelines.

I want to publish posts from other blogs (with owners permission) so need to embed them. I’ve been told I need to use iframe codes. Can you point me in the right direction of what I have to do please?

Next one’s going to be Docstoc. Not as good as Calameo, but some users have asked about it.
