Hi, I got my developer key and everything last week. I feel like there are just endless links to follow in this wiki dedicated to Wetpaint Injected, but no place to get easy to follow directions for copying and pasting the necessary code into a page on my site. I watched a short video on this site where the narrator literally copied some code to the head of a page, and then another where he wanted the wiki content to be and like magic he had Wetpaint "injected" into his site.

I can't find anything on here that is that simple. There are all of these examples of code but little instruction as to where to put them all. The PHP code in the Integration guide is broken into various blocks based on what it does, such as loggin in a user, retrieving data, etc. The integration guide doesn't specifically say where to put all the code. Do I just copy each block and paste them into the head of my page except for the one that displays results...and put that one where I want the wiki to show up?

I really want there to be some instructions with code snippets that spells it out for us designers who don't know much of anything about PHP code Something that goes step by step that has the code with clearly labeled areas where you need to input your keys, etc,, and says exactly where to put the code.

I was going to try to do the Hello World Tutorial because it sounds like it is supposed to be a tutorial like I was hoping for, but when I click on the URL provided in Step 1 that it says to open and view the source code...I just get a page that says Site Blocked!

I would so LOVE to put this wiki into the main body of one of my webpages, please tell me there is an easy way to do it that I just can't find the instructions for on this site. Do you find this valuable?

Hello!

Thank you for the feedback! The Hello World tutorial provides a sliced view of the Wetpaint Injected integration steps, since additional functionality, such as login, requires a deeper level of integration. Since you are using PHP, you can get away with implementing Step 2 and Step 3 to insert a Wetpaint Injected cell onto a particular page. Pasting a code example into a message thread doesn't give the best result, but if you'd like an example PHP file with this sample code, then do send me a P2P with your private email, and I can email over a PHP file with the code snippet for you to review.

As you build on, such as single sign-on integration, etc.the solution will grow and require a deeper level of integration. Each of these will require some knowledge of the implementation language, such as PHP, ASP dotNet, etc.
