Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted April 17, 20178 yr Inorder to embed YouTube's live chat in an iframe, there is a formula one is supposed to follow when constructing the link. Basically it's <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/live_chat?v=VIDEO_ID&embed_domain=DOMAN_NAME"></iframe> Just replace VIDEO_ID with the video id, and DOMAN_NAME with the root domain name. Simple enough. The problem arises with the & symbol. When IPS switches from source mode to wsiwyg mode it replaces the & symbol with & so then going back into source mode to look at the original iframe you see <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/live_chat?v=VIDEO_ID&embed_domain=DOMAN_NAME"></iframe> Which makes the chat not load. Does anyone know a way around this? Or better yet, has anyone successfully embedded a YouTube live chat on their forum?
