I don’t often use this plugin - Kimili Flash Embed - Version 1.4.2 - but needed it for this site, and also for my customer support site.

If seems to work as expected - by using a simple tag, you get a flash image or movie displayed …

One problem with the conversion that I noted is that the tinyMCE plugin for versions prior to WordPress created the following code to centre a div tag wrapped around an image :

The issue is that in Version 2.5, the attribute ‘align’ is not allowed. What you need to do is change to using the CSS equivalent :

<div style=”text-align: center”>

This could cause a problem if there are a large number of centered images in a site that is being upgraded - as your images will lose their alignment as soon as you open the the post while in Visual mode.

I tried using the Add Video media button - as an alternative to using this plugin. This doesn’t appear to be an equivalent to the Kimili plugin, as it uploaded the flash file, and inserted a link in the post content. Clicking on the link did result in the flash being displayed - but not as an embedded flash object inside the post. Something to investigate further once the upgrade has been completed and issued.
