Hi All.

I tried to just post the URL as shown here:
http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/136816#Comment_136816

But it did not work. It was posted as a link not a video.

How can I embed video to my post?

    My forum has that issue too - I think its a bug related to CLEditor.

    I'm eagerly awaiting a response, too. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes it doesn't, even with the same video involved.

    If you think it's a bug then there should be a bugreport for it on gitHub. If there is a bugreport you can see what they are doing with it, assigning it to a version or for a future version. No bugreport, no progress report.

    I have the exact same problem. It's quite frustrating because my forum relies heavily on users being able to embed videos.

    In /conf/config-defaults.php

    check


    $Configuration['Garden']['Format']['YouTube'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Format']['Vimeo'] = TRUE;
    $Configuration['Garden']['Format']['EmbedSize'] = 'normal'; // tiny/small/normal/big/huge or WIDTHxHEIGHT

    all there

    What happens when you simply post the embed code ?
  • RajioRajio ✭
    works fine with posting embed code, every time.
  • camocamo New
    ok, thats what I do too, probly easier for most people.

    were you using a plugin that offers youtube tags? and that wasnt working?
  • RajioRajio ✭
    no but AFAIK just pasting the youtube URL into your comment, vanilla ought to auto-embed it. ive seen it done a few times but never reliably.
  • camocamo New
    I dont know if thats inbuilt functionality or not, probably is a plugin to do it, or if your a code Einstein you might be able to tweak yours?
