    Solved Embedding Video (not youtube)

    Post by flyonthewall June 21st 2013, 5:45 pm

    Iam having trouble embedding a video into a topic on my forum.

    It is not a youtube, daily or flash.

    It has taken me the last 5 hours.  Im now at the point were I have enabled html, gotten the embed code from source and put it into the topic.  When you hit preview you see the video, but when you hit send all I get is the embed code coming up on the post.

    Were or what do I need to change in AP to let the video be seen when I hit the send button.

    Thanks

    Fly

    Check you profile and make sure you have "allow html" enabled.

    You're welcome glad I could help. Smile

    You of course now have html enabled in the administration panel, so I'm just letting you know all your new members will automatically have html enabled in there profiles. Only the members of your forum before you enabled it in AP will have to enabled it in there profiles manually. All the new members from this point forward will be enabled automatically. Smile
