My advice to anyone who is enabling the iframely integration - monitor your usage, check the urls used, search gooogle to see if any of the target sites actually provide their own oembed endpoint, and then add it to the application using the functionality that this application has always provided.

I agree. What I like is that iframely helps embed some web pages with images instead of just the links. Its a very nice added feature, but if you have a lot of one source that can be custom added, thats the way to go.

Can you embed telegram posts and/or videos?

[Nathan Explosion]

Does telegram support oembed?

If the answer is yes then yes, you would be able to add the oembed endpoint using this application

If the answer is no then the iframely integration of this app may support the functionality.

Provide an example link.

Thank you!

See example:

embed code looks like this: <script async src="https://telegram.org/js/telegram-widget.js?19" data-telegram-post="bloodysx/20444" data-width="100%"></script>

Looks good via the iframely integration functionality of the application:

Hello,

would it be possible that before external content is loaded at the user, he must press agree (once per provider?).

Unfortunately, there are always problems with data protection in the EU.

Kind regards,

The person posting the link, or the person viewing the embedded item?

The person who views the embedded. That would be good.

Maybe somewhere where you can see which third parties you have accepted to recall.

[Nathan Explosion]

Sorry, not going to happen - at least with this resource. Might think about it for a future project.

I've installed the oEmbed plugin you linked to (thanks) and will give it a go. 

Thanks for the purchase but you won't be able to get the code you provided working using it - as per the listing of my resource, it is for adding oembed endpoints into the default ones provided by Invision, and providing access to those on a group-basis (if desired)

So, the question is: does Canva provide an oEmbed endpoint? If yes, great...use that. If it doesn't, then you'll probably have to use the iFramely integration provided by my resource.

[EvanDC]

Hi there - I've just bought your plugin - thank you. 

I'm trying to setup my site to showcase and link through to my library of Canva templates. 

Canva says it supports oEmbed  and offers links to export for each template. 

Here's an example: 

https://www.canva.com/design/DAFZWegAizg/view

What should I be doing to make this "come alive" as it were? I've installed your plugin and can't see where to configure anything in particular. Are there further things I should be doing? Or are you aware with issues re Canva in particular? 

[Nathan Explosion]

@EvanDCSee information above your post.

The link you provided is a direct link to a design - it is not an oembed endpoint to which a URL can be sent to then retrieve the embed code from Canva.

The answer appears to be 'No' - I can look into building this into the application in the same way I've previously added support for captivate.fm embeds, but it won't be for a few days.

Tip: next time someone suggests a resource, it would be a good idea to check with the developer before you buy. If I had seen that conversion before your purchase then I would have commented if it was going to assist.

[EvanDC]

Hmmm, in which case I'm confused. 

Canva help files says this about that link (which is the smart link for the template in question):
 

For platforms that don’t support HTML embed codes, we suggest using smart embed links. They work on many websites, including the following:

• WordPress.com
• Medium
• Any website with oEmbed support

[Nathan Explosion]

It's not entirely true.

Anyway...I'll comment here after I've looked into whether it's possible to add this is a custom support in my application.

[EvanDC]

Thanks Nathan - much appreciated. 🙂 Apologies for my haste!! 

[Nathan Explosion]

No worries - just trying to save you some money...ask before you buy, make sure first.

[Nathan Explosion]

No additional work required - I've found their oembed endpoint. Create a custom endpoint as follows:

Note: ignore the "Apply to these groups?" setting - that appears to have a bug which I will resolve at a later point.

Once you've added the custom endpoint, go to the group(s) that you want to be able to use it, and there is an 'oembed' tab there where you can configure what the group has access to use.

Once done, the  https://www.canva.com/design/DAFZWegAizg/view link will embed as an iframe in the Editor.

v2.0.4 is now available.

• fixed issue with the "Apply to these groups?" setting not being applied to groups correctly when adding a new custom endpoint.
