Embed IP camera stream into Wordpress pages/posts[show. Camera width=”3. 00″]I was looking for a way to show my local IP network camera stream in my site (and my wife’s site).
Hello, tryitonce did you get this resolved? having the same problem of image not showing up after moving to localhost. All pages are working fine though.
Sure, it was easy enough to find the necessary code on Google and embed in a post through the text editor, but I wanted something more. I can’t expect my wife to write her posts without the Visual editor (which would have butchered the HTML required to show the stream), so I decided to convert the camera- generating HTML code to a PHP function and put it in our sites’ functions. Why would I want to do this?
Allows for repeated use throughout the site. Allows for use with different camera streams. Allows for use with different camera users. Allows for easy styling of the rendered stream via CSS class values. Allows for easy resizing of the displayed image.

W for my outdoor surveillance needs. It’s a hardy bullet camera with IR features and overall I’ve been very pleased with the quality it produces, although hot spots do tend to get a bit washed out. Anyway, here’s the code I put in my functions. Because I specified default values for non- specified parameters, I can simply use the shortcode [show.
Camera] in a post or page and I get my desired videostream. Sweet! Note that due to IE not accepting the videostream. I’m serving a static image from the camera and reloading it via javascript.
It’s a wonky solution in my opinion, but at least it works ; ). Camera ****************************************************.
Camera will display the video feed from an IP- based camera. It accepts the following parameters: *. I suggest creating a camera user with the username 'guest' *.
I suggest creating a password 'guest' for the user specified above *. IE *. CSS class attribute applied to the videostream to facilitate styling via CSS *. NOTE: The credentials necessary to view your camera WILL be available to anyone who views the page source *. DO NOT USE ADMINISTRATOR CREDENTIALS UNLESS YOU WANT PEOPLE TO MESS WITH YOUR CAMERA *. Camera($parameters).
Define accepted parameters and convert to PHP variables. Build string of HTML code to be returned by the function call. IE is unable to accept the videostream. We do this by introducing a javascript that will reload static images at a predefined rate. Check if the user is using Internet Explorer.
IE]> ". // Introduce javascript function to determine when to reload static image. Java. Script' type='text/javascript'>. Timeout('reload. Img(\"refresh\")',".$refresh."). Introduce javascript function to reload the static image. Img(id). var obj = document. Element. By. Id(id).
Date(). obj. src = '".$url.": ".$port."/snapshot. Math. floor(date. Time()/1. 00. 0). Insert the HTML < img> tag to load the static image.
Close the 'User is using IE IF block'. Check if the user is NOT using IE.
IE]> ". // Insert the HTML < img> tag to load the videostream. Live Feed'/> ". Close the 'User is NOT using IE IF block'.
Return function results. Register this function with the Word. Press framework as a shortcode. Camera', 'show. Camera'). If you implement this code on your site, be certain to change the default values in line #2. Also, implementing camera streams with this method requires the cameras to have their own externally available addresses. It’s actually quite easy to do, and for the nominal fee of a domain (I think I paid about $1.
I can get all the subdomains of jkshay. That is to say, “dockcam. I configured dockcam. IP address, then simply forwarded port 8. IP address of my camera. I configured my camera to listen on port 8. I also configured the DNS on my router to resolve dockcam.
IP address, and that handled the internal connection to my camera. Check out my post on configuring the Verizon Actiontec router for more detailed information regarding this configuration. Sample uses of the new [show.
Camera] shortcode: [show. Camera] – shows the default camera at the default resolution – a width of 4.
CSS class value of “alignleft”, and the default IE refresh rate of 1 second (1. Camera width=”2. 40″] – shows the default camera at the reduced resolution – a width of 2. Camera class=”alignright”] – shows the default camera with the “alignright” class attached for CSS styling purposes. This option is more useful when combined with a reduced width, such as[show. Camera width=”2. 40″ class=”alignright”] – shows the default camera at a reduced width with the CSS class “alignright” attached.[show.
Camera refresh=”5. This setting only applies to viewing in Internet Explorer.[show. Camera url=”http: //othercameraurl” port=”8. Default width, class, and refresh values would be applied. To summarize, I added PHP code to my theme’s functions. I wrote the code to accept several parameters, allowing the function to be used for multiple cameras.
I registered the function with the Word. Press framework as a shortcode, and finally listed several examples of how to use the shortcode with parameters. P. S. It has become evident that this may not work for all themes. For example, I tried the Esquire theme and saw that it didn’t work properly (I’m pretty sure my issue was with the article starting with the shortcode. Anyway, note that my current theme is a Writr Child theme, and it works here (in Chrome, that is).
I’ve also discovered that the IE- only code seems to break if a user is logged into the site. If they log out, the camera stream renders properly. I’m currently investigating this issue.
