Hi,

great plugin!

I have some seo questions for the flow player:

1. How do we ad alt text to: splashimage="http://asiancamflirts.com/wp-content/plugins/hana-flv-player/splash.jpg"
2. How do we add a video title and some keyword rich text for the search engines to pickup and for
the people who do not have a flash player?

Thanks!

zim,

1. How do we ad alt text to: splashimage="http://asiancamflirts.com/wp-content/plugins/hana-flv-player/splash.jpg"

Other than player 4 (FlowPlayer version3), the splash image is showing within the flash player meaning that there is no way to add alt text. But for FlowPlayer version 3, I implemented splash image to be shown as simple image with img tag, so it's possible. I will add alt text feature in the next release of Hana Flv Player.

2. How do we add a video title and some keyword rich text for the search engines to pickup and for
the people who do not have a flash player?

Actually, I will need to review more on this. But , if I can find javascript that will detect the flash player , I can show the description when flash player does not exit. Also simply providing good title and description for the blog article will do the work. I will review further and apply this to the next release.

Thank you for the questions.

New version 2.4 is just out. Description attribute will help what you need.

Description attribute is created for search engine and for the the_exerpt function. You can define some quick description for the video , and it will be shown within the object tags which will help search engines to see what the page is about.

[hana-flv-player
    video="http://localhost/wp-content/plugins/hana-flv-player/babyhana.flv"
    width="400"
    height="320"
    description="Sarah is having fun in a merry-go-round"
    clickurl="http://localhost"
    clicktarget="_blank"
    player="4"
    autoplay="false"
    loop="false"
    autorewind="true"
    splashimage="http://localhost/wp-content/plugins/hana-flv-player/splash.jpg"
