CatfishAttack Posted September 21, 2006 at 10:00 PM Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 at 10:00 PM Hello, I have question about how to use the adsotrans source code in wordpress. I type in the Chinese words I want to translate in adsotrans, got the translation, viewed source and copy the source code. However, when I put the source code in regular HTML it works, however, when I paste it in to wordpress body and it doesn't work. I am curious how did you get the newsinchinese.com to work with adsotrans source code? Any help will be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevelyan Posted September 22, 2006 at 05:56 AM Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 at 05:56 AM Just send me a private message (or email ideally) and I'll do what I can to help. You'll need to include some javascript at the top of the page if you aren't already. The issue otherwise may be with the "div" tag. The first thing to check though is to make sure Wordpress isn't filtering out the span tags that contain the word information. Does the Wordpress source contain the span tags Adso puts around words?

CatfishAttack Posted September 22, 2006 at 11:43 AM Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2006 at 11:43 AM I am not allowed to send PM via the forum and when I try to send you an email, it says you do not wish to receive any email and it is disabled. Can you please email me at walaboom@nc.rr.com or provide me your email address. Thanks a lot!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevelyan Posted September 24, 2006 at 05:25 AM Report Share Posted September 24, 2006 at 05:25 AM Have just sent you a short email. My updated email address is kept at the bottom of the readme file linked from the front page of www.adsotrans.com. When you get in touch pease include a link to whatever actual webpage is causing you problems so that I can see the source code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted November 13, 2006 at 06:11 AM Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 at 06:11 AM Hey, I also want to use adsotrans on wordpress. CatfishAttack, did you find your solution? If so, could you kindly email me ALL the details at darreninchina2@gmail.com I have next to no internet publishing experience, so you may need to dumb down the language for me a bit. Any help would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trevelyan Posted November 13, 2006 at 09:55 AM Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 at 09:55 AM Details on the simplest way to add Adsotations to webpages can be found at the address below. This is a bit new and experimental and it doesn't work very well with traditional texts yet but handles simplified ones well. You will need a standard-compliant browser like Mozilla for the editing functions to work: http://www.adsotate.com/edit.html http://www.adsotate.com/instructions.txt (view source to read) Bascially you can stick a small javascript link at the bottom of your page. Then submit any text to be annotated through the page above and edit the results in real-time. Click "convert to HTML" when you are done and copy and paste the code that appears into your webpage. This isn't advertised elsewhere and it is experimental so there's no guarantee that the files will stay up over the long run (if the hosting burden becomes too much I may move it). But I don't mind hosting the files as long as it isn't abused. People are also welcome to copy the three backend scripts to their own website as well -- there's no real need for me to host them all. Please just provide a courtesy link to the main site if you find this useful. If you have problems, the most likely issue will be wordpress converting HTML brackets in your post into HTML entities like & g t ; Make sure your wordpress installation allows you to enter HTML in your posts. You can always check the raw source for any page to make sure the span tags aren't being filtered out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatfishAttack Posted November 13, 2006 at 01:07 PM Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2006 at 01:07 PM Darren - I emailed trevelyan and the solution he gave me was to modify the style.css and header.php I have sending you an email with the coding information. Hope it helps. This is what it looks like on my site http://www.learnezchinese.com/jokes/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
