I definitely come across videos on there that I want to post and then have to hope I can find them elsewhere to do so.

I take it that's a no from mods since I've been asking for months and nothing

That's odd. We could do it on the old board.

There you are.  @Moderator6 can you help out @SBorBust with password issue, he is posting currently as @SB52

Sorry buddy, we had to make some mock draft selections for you

FWIW, I’m completely fine with having the old name disabled and going forward with the new handle.

You should have them at least give you your stats and join date.

@Moderator12 and @VaBeach_Eagle are the technical admins to help you with that.

I just wrangle TATERs all day.  :smoke:  Don't worry we'll get it sorted.  We've all been busy with work stuff lately.  I know, I know EMB priorities!  :flex:

Your wrangling was not very successful last night.  You drug that horse to water against his will and he still refused to drink.

@VaBeach_Eagle could you check out embedding Facebook and Reddit videos and links?  Twitter and YouTube work as expected. 

Thank you.  And don't worry, @Mike030270 cares about it so much he will donate more money to fund your time researching.  :P

Well hence the saying you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.  What you can do is give him a 2 week suspension to think about it.  :lol:

Hopefully you made it clear I did not use my immense control over the mods to influence that decision.

I'm not sure about reddit videos. I've had problems with mobile Facebook and Instagram links not even appearing in the text editor after pasting the links

I got a new phone and forgot the password for my SBorBust account. I tried multiple times, but the password email was never sent to my email address. I hope it’s okay if I just use this handle going forward. 

PM me the email address that you used to register and I'll check to see if that's what's in the system and get it straightened out for you.

Do me a favor, find a video on Facebook and one on Redit, then post both as if you would if that function worked correctly. I want to see what's happening for me, and then when it doesn't work, I want to be able to show that example to Invision so they can tell me what the issue is (and hopefully fix it).

The link for mobile facebook doesn't even appear when I paste it. I click share and copy link but when I paste it nothing appears

I don't know about reddit because I don't normally post anything from reddit but I can try and find one

Ok so apparently Reddit links don’t show up either when you paste them from mobile

When I click that Instagram link, it takes me to a login page. So if you have to log in to see the video, it definitely won't imbed properly. It would have to be a 'public' video. 

For the Facebook link, use the 'Code' posting option (it's next to the little eyeball above the text box when you post). That will post it so that the link will show... like this:

 The code icon doesn’t show up on my phone. I see that it does for PC though 

If I have the phone horizontal then I get a couple more icons but still no code iconA4CFA1E7-AD72-40B7-BDB1-F26113E70926.thumb.png.bf3ad134f3a5afbe9e6f182d3db47841.pngC7F57927-BBE8-451A-AF33-3D9E9088FB77.thumb.png.b8b2048b73bebb3e72a6617c0b61e7da.png

I know there's a way to fix that, but it's been a while since I've seen that issue. To get around it for now, you can type the 'code' code manually. So that you can see what you have to type, I'll put it into a code box... otherwise, typing it will make it become a code box lol. 

[code]Paste the url of the Facebook video in here.[/code]

When I tried to post videos from Facebook, I got an error message that an error occurred on Facebook. So I went to the Invision client forum and did some reading. It seems that Facebook and Instagram made some changes on their platforms and that broke the ability to embed via Invision forums. 

Invision is aware of the issue and has said that it will be fixed in their new update, which won't be out for a few more weeks.

Is it just me, or is the board painfully slow tonight?
