- Download and extract the plugin
- Upload the inline-google-docs folder into the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
- Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
- Go to Settings, then navigate to Inline Google Docs
- Provide the plugin with your Google account login credentials
- Input proxy settings if you are behind a proxy, then click on Save Changes
- The plugin will display the document/spreadsheet id's for your documents and spreadsheets
Important
Should you decide to checkout a copy of the plugin using SVN, make sure you correct the file permissions on your own as SVN does not preserve file permissions. I recommend the following settings (assuming FTP user as codex and Web user as www-data):
-rw-r----- codex www-data some-file.php
drwxr-x--- codex www-data some-directory
As for the cache and error log:
drwxrwx--- codex www-data cache
-rw-rw---- codex www-data error.log.php
The UNIX commands are provided below:
cd /path/to/Wordpress/wp-content/plugins/inline-google-docs;
find . -type d -exec chmod 750 {} \;
find . -type f -exec chmod 640 {} \;
chmod -R g+w ./cache;
When I try to activate the plug-in, I get the following:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /mnt/w0602/d41/s21/b02fb9b2/www/sitesetupforyou.com/wp-content/plugins/inline-google-docs/gdocs.php on line 47
Any suggestions?
Hi. That error occurred because your host runs PHP4. This plugin requires PHP5 and above to work. The best way to fix this is to request your host to update their software. Thanks!

Hi, I've installed the plugin, but I'm receiving the message "The log file is not writable. Current user: nobody | Groups: nobody, :, nobody." I've updated the permissions on the error.log.php file in the cache folder, and can't find another log file.
Can you help?

Hi there,
The plugin is working fine in my worpress 2.9.2, but as i use widgets for my site, it doesn't embed the document. The widget ignores the short code and what appears is the text and the shortcode...
Any ideas ?
pedro
@Pedro - I have the same problem with shortcode not working in Widgets in WP 2.9.2 - but works in earlier versions. Did you get this fixed?
This plug-in is exactly what I am looking for and I am sad it is not being developed any longer. Any chance codex.is.poetry that you may reconsider?

"An error has occurred: File "Zend/Validate/Hostname/Com.php" does not exist or class "Zend_Validate_Hostname_Com?" was not found in the file. Please contact the plugin author with error.log.php for assistance."
