YouTube icon for video link.
« on: August 03, 2014, 12:06:48 PM »
For some reason the YouTube icon for video link on my posts are not working. I use the hyperlink to link the YouTube video which should show a YouTube icon on my post and it's not showing up. Am I doing something wrong?

Yeah, but I used to be able to have a picture video link that was clickable so for some reason I can't get it to work anymore.

you had a picture video link, where?

you mean you paste a youtube URL into a post and exepct it to be a mini-player in the post?

Probably so - if you are using the https URL of the video. -- I have to update the emebed mod so that it processes https. Until then, just change the URL to be http

Yes, I want to have a mini player in my posts. I'll try pasting the http but I believe I did try it before and it didn't work.

It will fail with https, but work with http...

Although, there is a limit to the number of previews the system will show on a single page... So, if other posts in the thread already are previewed, future ones may exceed the limit and only be links.
