I have learned a lot this year running SeedProd, like how to build a solid plugin in the wild world of WordPress, how to provide quality support and how to actually turn a profit which were all my goals when I started this venture coming off my nth failure which I wrote about Startups – A brutally honest post and reality check

SeedProd was an experiment as much as it was a business venture. I wanted to start small and focus on one product and make it the best on the market. I think I have achieved that. In that past year there have been many competitors to pop up and SeedProd is still the leader.

What’s next? SeedProd will continue to improve the Coming Soon Pro plugin and I have another plugin lined up for a late Fall release. Plus I plan to release some services I feel there is a need for in the WordPress market. I’m attending Pressnomics in November where I hope to meet a co-founder.

So cheers and here’s to another excellent year!

You can add more sources programmatically or with a plugin called Embedly.

I wanted to this feature to my Coming Soon plugin but it was not obvious on how to do so. I started hunting down the function that enabled this functionality on the post by searching for all the filters that ran on the template tag “the_content”. I found that on line 1056 in the file /wp-includes/media.php the following code was called:

 
// Attempts to embed all URLs in a post
if ( get_option('embed_autourls') )
    add_filter( 'the_content', array(&$this, 'autoembed'), 8 );

The method autoembed is part of a class called WP_Embed which is defined as “API for easily embedding rich media such as videos and images into content.”

So this was the function I need to pass my custom field content into to get the auto embed urls. I discover this was class was in the $GLOBALS array. so now all I had to do was call the method. Here’s the code.

 
if(isset($GLOBALS['wp_embed']))
    $content = $GLOBALS['wp_embed']->autoembed($content);

This would run your content through the oEmbed process of getting the html for the media urls.

If anyone knows of a better way to do this please let me know in the comments.
