Another problem...
Another problem...
#1
For some reason video embeds -- whether imported or created here -- work inside the editor window but don't when displayed in a thread.  A quick search indicates a couple of possible reasons.  

I've put tracking this down and fixing it on my to-do list.

Another forum I'm on cares if there's a "s" after "http" in the link ("https" doesn't work, "http" does.)
"It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it." - Aristotle
"Being told to be 'open minded' about something is usually a code for 'you're not going to like this, but I want to subject you to it anyway'. Conversely, being told that you are 'closed-minded' is generally a means of asserting that 'I don't like the fact that you're proving me wrong, so I will pretend that your failure to agree with my argument is a philosophical deficiency'." - RationalWiki

Yeah, that seems to be most common explanation I've come across. There are a few different solutions available, and I'll investigate and test them after I get the rest of the board transferred over.

Y'know, I don't mind needing to click on a link to see a video. That way, the videos don't get auto-loaded and auto-added to the list that YouTube uses to predict what I might like... (My "you might like" list is now useless to me, although I suspect timote would love it.)

That would be, I think, an easy enough change to effect with a quick SQL statement or two.

(You know, I'm starting to wonder just how the hell I ran the old boards for 15 years without database access and the vast majority of admin tools available here...)
