Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Cosmic Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 I have v4.3.1.2 installed, and youtube doesn't seem to embed. https://youtu.be/lU-jR0wc1nY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lU-jR0wc1nY ... and it won't do for me here .... unless I'm doing something wrong? Is anyone able to tell me how it will embed, please?
AndyF Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Is it all videos ? Here are three relevant reports:
Cosmic Posted November 12, 2015 Author Posted November 12, 2015 nope, it doesn't seem to be all videos, because since I've had users reporting that they can't embed, I've seen at least one embedded video (I've asked the user how he did it, but he's not yet responded). I've tried embedding the same vid as that user myself using the same method that worked a few days ago, and I can't get it to embed, so i've no idea what that user did.
Pseudonym Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Is this a permissions issue? I'm having a similar problem... My users are pasting in Youtube and Instagram links, and they're not embedding. I paste the same link, and they embed beautifully. But damned if I can see any setting that would be causing this.
George Maciver Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 I've found that putting a carriage return, a new line, immediately after the youtube url works.

No permissions have been changed, and the guy who has successfully embedded since others haven't been able is in the same group as those others. I have seen there's an active bug report that's fixed in version v4.1.4 (that's not yet released), tho the bug report isn't exactly the same as I'm experiencing.https://community.invisionpower.com/4bugtrack/active-reports/4132-mobile-youtube-links-not-parsed-and-embedded-r8929/
George Maciver Posted November 12, 2015 Posted November 12, 2015 Ah, I'm on version 4.1.3.2. I think I'll wait until 4.1.4 is released before upgrading again

I think I'll wait until 4.1.4 is released before upgrading again it's odd that it works for you on that version, but doesn't for me. Tho I know IPS have (or at least had, prior to v4) a sneaky habit of adding new changes to an already released version without changing the version number, so perhaps that's what happened here, and you've got a version of the code that's slightly different to mine.

Cosmic Posted November 12, 2015 Author Posted November 12, 2015 tries one that's not disallowed (which I have done already on my own site).... Ahhh ... it appears to have changed from using the 'share' link to using the page's URL .... yep, that works. Thank you....
