Hi,

Does anyone know of a bbcode which supports google drive (formerly known as Google Docs) documents?

Thanks,
oman

To either paste a full link or the ID of the document and have it embed itself in a nice way. (Maybe doing so within the tags of [doc][/doc])

I don't think Google Docs are even embeddable. There is the Docs Viewer tool but it doesn't work with Google Drive Documents, only links to actual .pdf, .docx, etc files.

They are embeddable, I did this a while ago actually....http://xenforo.com/community/threads/bb-code-manager-bb-code-xml-repository.8470/page-7#post-201898

I am in the process of rebuilding it as a bbcode mediasite.

I did remember they used to display an embed link in the share box, but couldn't find anything in Google Drive

When you have a doc open,

Click File --> Publish to web

below Get a link to the published data

... is a drop down that says Web Page, change it to 'HTML to embed in a webpage'

The embed code appears below.
