s9e / flarum-ext-mediaembed Goto Github PK

I just installed Flarum again from scratch using composer. I believe that puts me at beta4. I downloaded and added this plugin to my extensions folder and it shows up under my admin panel. Then I activated it and posted some youtube links both inside meida tags and outside of them - but they just appear as links.

Am I doing something wrong? What steps can I take to try and debug this further?

Also! Thanks for all the support to Flarum with extensions! I appreciate your efforts.

I was just thinking – if someone posts a link to another discussion or post in the same forum, it would be cool to expand it into a little box with the discussion title, post author/avatar, and post content.

Haven't thought much about it beyond that, but just thought I'd drop this idea here before I forget.

All Youku videos went blank on HTTPS forums, because "player.youku.com" does not have SSL support. But actually Youku does support HTTPS, with a different URL.

e.g.
Original link: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMTU0MzMyNjg2NA.html
HTTP player: http://player.youku.com/embed/XMTU0MzMyNjg2NA
HTTPS player: https://players.youku.com/player.php/sid/XMTU0MzMyNjg2NA/v.swf

I think it's better to use the HTTPS player at any time.

We want to expose people to the idea of using Composer to install extensions. While a zip download is fine for extensions like this without any autoloading stuff, it'd be cool if you could put this up on Packagist and add composer require s9e/flarum-mediaembed as an alternative method of installation to the README. This would certainly be my preferred method of installation for discuss.flarum.org! And then updates are as easy as composer update 👍

I'm not sure if you can use a different package name on Packagist, but Flarum's Composer installer only truncates a flarum- prefix from the start, so ideally the package name would be flarum-mediaembed. That would be installed to extensions/s9e-mediaembed.

Thank you very much for the extension.

As far as i can see it only supports bbcode-like syntax at the moment. Flarum does not only support bbcode but also Markdown.

I think it would improve the user experience and make usage more consistent if there was additional syntax that reassembles markdown.

In the CommonMark discussion the following syntax is often suggested:

  !video[ title ]( url )
  !audio[ title ]( url )
  !youtube[ title ]( url )

It is not part of the specification afaik.

So a !media[]() would fit the markdown style while being consistent with "codeword" for bbcode.

Hi there,

just wanted to install current flarum and got from your extension it needs flarum beta-8. As far as I know beta-8 is not yet released
