howto: video/pic/gif embed

Forum > General Discussion

(1/1)

MTZ:
Best solution to keep pics on your threads for a long time is to upload them to the site, if you choose to use external links you can follow the instructions below but there is no guarantee on how long those links are going to work.

allowed tags
[ yt ][/yt]
[ vimeo ] [ /vimeo ]
[ gifv ] [ /gifv ]
[ img ] [ /img ]
[ url ] [ /url ] still testing havent found good formats that turn to video

so i tried a feature to auto embed videos but our forums rules were not made with that in mind so all our signatures look out of whack full of videos, that being said i turned the auto convert feature off but we can still use the embedding for our own threads, so if i want to show you guys https://youtu.be/gEPWfkVZddI

i just add the link in between [ yt ] [ /yt ] (without the extra spaces) and it can be played in the forum! lmk if you need help!

links so you can see how it was embedded and the actual video embedded on site. (needs the tags to be all together no spaces)

[ yt ] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kknVfOJZ1w0 [ /yt ]

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=kknVfOJZ1w0
[ vimeo ] https://vimeo.com/577756310 [ /vimeo ]

Not a valid vimeo URL
[ gifv ] https://i.imgur.com/HUpozsc.gifv [ /gifv ]

[ img ] [/img ] tags (if you don't specify a size it might look too big depending on source file)

[ img width=500 height=350 ] https://el.phncdn.com/gif/37011891.gif [ /img ] This version works for pics and gifs

[ img width=200 height=150 ] https://el.phncdn.com/gif/37011891.gif [ /img ]

does it matter where the image is hosted?

the link has to actually lead to the source image, ie ....com/pics/honda.jpg some modern sites like fb handle pictures a bit different.

this link leads to a picture of an ad but cant be embedded the way its on the url, https://www.facebook.com/commerce/listing/626109811730966/?media_id=0&ref=share_attachment

if you right click that pic within fb and click open image in new tab this link comes up https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/p720x720/255340833_2966636043585908_4643570972949813339_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-5&_nc_sid=843cd7&_nc_ohc=09njOu1JeAYAX_mOSI9&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=2695a53739e6152dc5f658e06c08bfd0&oe=6197EA12 which can be embedded with [img ]http://[/img ] tags like so

sry for the long explanation
