Matthew the YouTube button is gone on the editor? I wanted to add the small overlap tests to my post, but could not find the button. June

For example, I pasted in

Code: Select all

Just the link appears. How do you get the window to appear. Why did the YouTube button disappear? It was easier. June

Sorry about the change, June.

Long story short: this change was triggered by the Dreamhost server meltdown that happened in early June.

Rebuilding the site at the new host revealed some incompatibilities between the software I use to make everything work, and the new server. So I had to change some things we use, and the forum media player is one of them.

In your YouTube videos above, I don't have a theory on why it's not working for you. I copy and pasted those URLs, and they work.

To help get to the bottom of this, June, can you copy this URL and paste into your reply?

Code: Select all

Just paste into the reply. No buttons, no tags, nothing.

Hi Matt,

I've noticed the window does not pop up either, just the URL.

One other function not working is when you click on a link it no longer starts on a new tab. It replaces the current MVS page? Thanks.

Crazy - I just pasted that URL. Maybe it's a Preferences thing. Lemme check.

(EDIT: Not sure what you just did but it's fixed - LINK STARTS In New Tab).
