Board Update - Embed Codes

Postby **Kicksave** » Fri May 01, 2015 5:57 pm

I installed an extension that will auto-embed media. I've tested youtube, twitter, gfycat, vine and those worked.

Other media that supposedly works is ABC News, Amazon Product, audioBoom, Audiomack, Bandcamp, BBC News, Bleacher Report videos, Blip, Break, CBS News Video, CNBC, CNN, CNNMoney, Colbert Nation, CollegeHumor, Comedy Central, Coub, Dailymotion, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, dumpert, 8tracks, ESPN, ESPN Deportes, Facebook, Flickr, Fox News, Funny or Die, Gamespot, GameTrailers, Getty Images, Gfycat, GitHub Gist (via custom iframe), Global News, GoFundMe, Google+, Google Sheets, Grooveshark, Hudl, Hulu, HumorTV, IGN, IMDb, Imgur, Indiegogo, Instagram, Internet Archive, İzlesene, Kontinental Hockey League (КХЛ), Kickstarter, LiveLeak, Livestream, Mail.Ru, Medium, Metacafe, Mixcloud, MSNBC, National Geographic Channel, National Geographic Video, NHL VideoCenter, NPR, The New York Times Video, Pastebin, Podbean, Prezi, Rdio, Reddit comment permalink, Rutube, Scribd, SlideShare, SoundCloud, Sportsnet, Spotify, Straw Poll, Streamable, Team Coco, TED Talks, The Atlantic Video, The Onion, TinyPic videos, TMZ, Trailer Addict, Tumblr, Twitch, Twitter (via custom iframe), Ustream, VBOX7, VEVO, Viagame, Videomega, vidme, Vimeo, Vine, VK, Vocaroo, WorldStarHipHop, The Wall Street Journal Online, XboxClips, Xbox DVR, Yahoo! Screen, Youku, YouTube, Zippyshare audio files.

All you do is post the direct link in the reply box and it should embed.

Please let me know if you have any issues with it. If this extension works, we can get rid of some of the bb codes which should make browsing the board easier, especially on tablets, mobile, etc.

Also, please be careful with what media you're embedding. If it's not something you would be comfortable sharing in an office setting, then you probably shouldn't post it here.

Ha, it works.... and you don't even have to delete the 's' out of the URL from YouTube clips.

This is fantastic. I knew there had to be something that did this, or at least knew about the secure HTTP for youtube.

Tried to just paste a URL to Amazon and it doesn't render:

It doesn't?

Oh. I see. It's a Pro Silver thing.

Discriminatory mofos, the lot of you.

Is there a way to add an option to not have all of these things embedded. This is going to crush me on mobile.

Switch to Pro Silver.

This board sucks

Postby **dodint** » Mon Oct 30, 2017 6:15 pm

I am sorry about the hand job thing.

Was this resolved?

Mods have locked the board update thread so I felt that using an existing thread devoted to the precise topic was responsible posting

Sort it out mods

Thanks ObamaKicksave.

@Kicksave did you ever contact the Subway folks?

Postby **columbia** » Tue Oct 31, 2017 8:58 am

It's like we need a 5AF ticketing system, just to report and track all of the errors.

We need more dagny

I propose we let @NAN join EPP and his mentally unstable son in the banned land.

There's a few people in the political thread that I'd put ahead of NAN on that list...if you're taking suggestions...

Embedding, quoting... it's all either broken or looks awful. Any ETA on when things will be resolved?

Kicksave was supposed to reach out about the quoting. The embedding - still no update, we're at the whim of the dev.
