Title: Embedded videos Post by: Andrew on January 15, 2014, 07:26:14 PM The YouTube plug-in has been generating a massive number of errors since the server move. Looking into it, the plug-in has been discontinued and not recommended for newer versions of the forum (I updated that at the same time as the server move - same look, newer backend).
I installed a new plug-in that will automatically embed YouTube videos. Just copy and past the URL from YouTube. I've done some testing and it appear to work fine.

Title: Re: Embedded videos Post by: Andrew on January 15, 2014, 10:05:38 PM It's the "https" part of the URL. Regular http works fine:
Beautiful Things - Gungor Lyric Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1spkhp41ig4#ws) It also works with the URL starting with www: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1spkhp41ig4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1spkhp41ig4#ws) Title: Re: Embedded videos Post by: indianasmith on January 15, 2014, 10:36:46 PM Weird. Should I have waited for the imbed to read before I clicked the "Post" button?

You will have to manually remove the "s" from the "https://" part of the link. That was true of the previous plugin too. Look at both the http and the https version with the preview button before you hit post and you'll see.
