Very Hot topicHow to embed videos

Please Note: This process changed as of Mingle Forum 1.0.04 to have much better support for embedding videos not just YouTube videos either. All you need to do is visit this link for a complete list of supported sites.

HOW TO:
* Just copy the link to the video from your browsers address bar.
* Copy into the post, highlight it and click the YouTube BBCode button.
* Submit the post and Mingle Forum will take care of the rest.
* ENOJY! 8-)

TROUBLESHOOTING:
* The embedding only works with WP 2.9 and up
* Make sure the Embed option is selected in the media options of the WordPress Dashboard Settings.
* The video isn't the right size? -- You can edit the video width setting in you Dashboard Media Settings also.

weird. the forum uses the exact same filter as wordpress so I'm having a hard time understanding this one. I'll look into it a little more.

Yeah, that's where you change the width of the YouTube videos too.

I seem to be having some trouble with this. I can't seem to get the videos to embed. I have checked to make sure that embedding is enabled through the Wordpress dashboard.

When I do embed a youtube video, the link and video are excluded from my post and I'm left with white space.

Does anyone have any thoughts on why it's not working?

Make sure you have the latest version of Mingle Forum. If you do than I'm clueless...maybe a plugin conflict.
