Title: Youtube video embeds don't display consistently
Post by: combinator on October 26, 2008, 07:16:54 PM

Hello SimplePortal Community,

I am running SMF 1.1.6 and SimplePortal 2.0.5 at www.AmericanaWorks.com.

The issue is that in certain blocks YouTube video embeds display properly and in other blocks they do not.  In the blocks where embeds don't display the link to the page at Youtube appears instead of the embedded video.  See, for example, the Joe Strummer and Marvin Gaye boards toward the bottom of the right column.

I can't figure out for the life of me why the Youtube embeds don't display there on the SimplePortal page while they do display properly in the forum at:

http://americanaworks.com/index.php?board=27.0
and
http://americanaworks.com/index.php?board=32.0

I can't figure out why Youtube embeds don't work on the right side of www.LibertyIsGreen.com and www.AmericanaWorks.com while they perform fine at sites like www.ShakespeareanWorks.com and www.SportsWorks.com.

Thanks for sharing your insight.

It could be possible if you use kalberson's script that the maximum limit is reached for showing youtube vids.

Thanks again 1031.  For posterity I note that karbenson's Youtube BBCode was recommended as the workaround for this issue.

Stay strong and well!
