Hi,


Is it possible for users to embed videos (Youtube, etc) in posts as is done in other forums - ie. the actual Youtube video screen is displayed in the forum thread posts and it can be clicked and played in the actual forum?


Thanks

Marc

Hi,

I have a pb with embed video flash. While i'm writing the message it seems to work, but as soon as you saved the post, the video is gone.

Do you have any idea where does that come from ?

Thank

Work fine there :)

pb? What is a 'pb'?

As you can see above it works so what are you doing differently here to on your own site? It is best if you use the 'media' toolbar button above…

Baffling. No idea what could cause that. But… how about giving me a link to a topic with a post in it that has a failed video embed and I can at least take a look at the code.

Ok, thank anyway.

I tried to write directly in the database: wp_sfposts and when i do that the video appears.

Then i tried disabled 'QuickTags' editor and now it's working !
