Description of problem

I tried to embedded a Tweet from Twitter, but it did not work correctly. I tried the code @Ange Tuteur posted in this topic: https://help.forumotion.com/t145791-how-can-i-embed-twitter-s-twets-in-topics#999277 . I notice that when I edit the post with the embedded Tweet most of the code is gone. The embedded Tweet is only showing the text of the Tweet.

It appears to be working. You're referring to this forum, correct ? I noticed it just doesn't format in the quick preview.

Correct.  When I tried yesterday, the media would not appear.

For Example:  When I tried this Tweet, the image did not appear.

Code:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">A few days left to participate to our contests 🎨 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/ValentinesDay?src=hash">#ValentinesDay</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/graphicdesign?src=hash">#graphicdesign</a> <a href="https://t.co/2UVozBFBbU">https://t.co/2UVozBFBbU</a> <a href="https://t.co/bxXs2Mi3kl">pic.twitter.com/bxXs2Mi3kl</a></p>&mdash; Forumotion.com (@Forumotion) <a href="https://twitter.com/Forumotion/status/696697802483703808">February 8, 2016</a></blockquote>
<script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

This is what I get on my forum:  A few days left to participate to our contests
When I edit the post, this is what is in it: 

Code:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">A few days left to participate to our contests

It is still not working for me.

Hmm.. I think it might be the icon :

Code: 🎨

try removing that from the tweet to see if it works. I'm only assuming that because the message stops right after this icon, plus it's not there either.

You are correct. When I remove it from the code, the Tweet appears correct even with the deleted image.

Yes.. that seems to be the case. The previews work fine, but once you actually post the message it seems to cut the rest off due to that icon. It might be a problem with parsing server-side which would need looking into..

Thanks @Ange Tuteur .
