Askancy Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 I integrated my IP.board forum into an SSO system with my site, using a custom remote comment system but I have encountered a problem with the plugin. When a user enters a link on the forum, the oembed is successfully created with links to the images correctly but when one views the comment via the site, it has a problem with the image url: Example: <div class="externalLinkRichEmbed"> <div class="ipsRichEmbed" style="max-width: 500px; border: 1px solid rgba(0,0,0,0.1); "> <div class="ipsRichEmbed_masthead ipsRichEmbed_mastheadBg ipsType_center"> <a href="https://--.it/articolo/7572-dirt-rally-20-game-of-the-year-e-disponibile-da-oggi.html" style="background-image: url( 'https://--.it/upload/gallery/1557/dirt-rally-20-1430506358.jpg' ); background-position: center; background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; height: 120px; display: block;" rel=""><img alt="dirt-rally-20-1430506358.jpg" class="ipsHide" data-src="https://--.it/upload/gallery/1557/dirt-rally-20-1430506358.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></a> </div> <div style="padding: 10px;"> <h3 class="ipsRichEmbed_itemTitle ipsTruncate ipsTruncate_line ipsType_blendLinks"> <span><img alt="6554b6be8c0d829a8bf63ae0c82cf121_link.pn" data-src="<___base_url___>/uploads/set_resources_6/6554b6be8c0d829a8bf63ae0c82cf121_link.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></span> <a href="https://---.it/" style="text-decoration: none; margin-bottom: 5px;" title="Test" rel="">Test</a> </h3> <div class="ipsType_light"> --.IT </div> <hr class="ipsHr"><div class="ipsSpacer_top ipsSpacer_half" data-ipstruncate="" data-ipstruncate-size="3 lines" data-ipstruncate-type="remove" style="overflow-wrap: break-word;"> <span>Test</span> </div> </div> </div> </div> how do I display the correct URL instead of <__base_url__>? Also, isn't it possible to bring up the site favicon instead of the link icon?

DaffyDuck Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 THANK YOU FOR YOUR PLUGIN! Works great, when it does, but obviously some sites won't support it. Thus, articles in Newsweek.com do not generate a preview (like this one https://www.newsweek.com/ca-sees-record-increase-new-covid-19-cases-more-20000-5-days-1512421 ). I'm just reporting this here so you know, and maybe something can be done to improve this. I'm very happy with the plugin and what it does.
marco2306 Posted July 19, 2020 Posted July 19, 2020 Hello, First thank you for the good plugin. Unfortunately, my picture is not shown at % 7B ___ base_url ___% 7D ..... If I replace it with my URL, then it works. Where can I change that permanently?
marco2306 Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 There is no picture in the post, but it is in the editor
optrexnz Posted August 8, 2020 Posted August 8, 2020 Looks like there is some interference here with the new media embed URL's within 4.5 if anyone is looking at testing with beta 11
Jordan Miller Posted September 1, 2020 Posted September 1, 2020 Hey there. Is there a version for 4.4 still available? @A Zayed

I posted a new version under approval now, The problem is that the image is blocked in case you enabled the new setting that disables insecure images (non https). RevengeFNF 1

One more question. Its possible to force https on the image if its available? For example, in the example i gave you, the embed will use the http version of the image (that's why the issue occurred), but the site also have the https version available.

The plugin doesn't use the image inside content, but the image provided in the head meta tags... there is no https version in there. RevengeFNF 1
SFLUFAN Posted September 14, 2020 Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) Good morning, @A Zayed We recently purchased and installed version 1.4.8 of External Links Rich Embed in preparation for our upgrade to IPB 4.5. We completed the upgrade to IPB 4.5 and attempted to upgrade the plugin to version 1.4.10 from within the AdminCP using the instructions indicated on the plugin's site on the Marketplace. However, when we attempted the install, we received the following message: "The plugin you are trying to install appears to be installed already" Any assistance you could provide would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Wade EDIT: WHOOPS! I decided to uninstall 1.4.8 and then reinstall from the Marketplace and it worked just fine! Please disregard everything that I posted above! 🙂 Edited September 15, 2020 by SFLUFAN

xdrox Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) Sorry, it's not working as I thought it would. We need to type the whole url for it to work. We can't copy and paste links. Even when it do works, it's somewhat broken. No favicon and all... I'm uninstalling it. Edited February 5, 2021 by xdrox

xdrox Posted February 6, 2021 Posted February 6, 2021 Can't recuperate the favicon from those big mainstream sites : http://www.instagram.com http://www.journaldemontreal.com Have any idea? Thank you.
xdrox Posted February 6, 2021 Posted February 6, 2021 Is it possible to reduce the title and adress font size? Thank you again.
iacas Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 My IPS install says 1.4.11, and "up to date" even though 1.4.12 is published/available. And under IPS 4.5, you can't really force it to update, or download the files to manually update.
