Description
Hi All,
We have a faculty member trying the embed and display powerpoint files on the commons (not from a link).
In the past we have used embed any document plugin without issue. However it appears this plugin is no longer working on the Commons

Screenshot of attempt from today
Is there a bug in the new version of the this plugin? Or some other issue we might be able to resolve?
Thanks!

Apologies, Laurie. I should have read the ticket more thoroughly! I thought the user was embedding via Google Drive.
Is the user attempting to embed a powerpoint file uploaded to the site's Media Library from a private site? If so, this will not work. The site (or URL) has to be public in order for the powerpoint file to be displayed properly.
Thanks Ray - I tested and it works when site is public.
Hi All,
Thanks for looking into this! Very helpful to know this only works if the site is public.
I identified a work around - if you save ppt as pdf you can display using the pdf embedder plugin on a private site.
- Status changed from New to Resolved
- Target version set to Not tracked
