I'm still having problems with the short youtu.be urls. I've installed all the latest updates, but urls such as http://youtu.be/nOGsB9dORBg simply won't embed.

Tested this on mine, and it embedded fine. Double check your YouTube (Short URL) definition. Make sure it's active and that nothing seems to be missing from the first RegEx field.

Catching up on some very old definition requests. (2010? :eek:) The up side is that quite a few of the requested websites have shut down since being requested. Okay, maybe that's good for me, and not them. Point is, I should have some more defs ready for you tonight or tomorrow. Sorry, I missed Friday Night again.

Everything seems to be OK. And just to be sure, I even deleted the definition and reimported it. Odd.

Can you you point me to an example of where it's not embedding?

|[SUPERBOWL NIGHT UPDATES]|
That can be a thing, too. Right? [sigh]

Here's a few updates to try and make up for my formidable absence. "Sorry I've been away so long. I won't let you down again."


Updated

Amazon now uses the same formatting as eBay thumbs.


I think it looks a lot better, so switch up at your discretion. You might want to nudge your title character count up just a little. Also, be sure to put the following Amazon logo (at the bottom of this post) in your images/misc directory.

Facebook is updated for the new URL strings, and includes an Old definition to support your old embeds.

Hulu got a much needed update, but unfortunately there's no way to support the older embeds. They'll look a little funny. Not terrible, just funny. As long as you don't edit them, they should still work.

YouTube Videos, Short URLs & Playlists all have been updated to support the new https protocol. (Also corrected my misnamed youtube1 key name.) And there's a brand new Playlists definition, along with an Old def to maintain older embeds. (Profiles/Channels will have to wait for now. Not sure if it's being used much, anyway.)

zSHARE, RapidShare, MediaFire & CNET Badges all got some tweaks for page load performance and styling. They now all use a single image each, found in the image gallery below.

And now, for the good stuff...


NEW DEFINITIONS
Caught up with most of the list, and left comments in the request threads when I needed more info, or couldn't make a site work. You'll be able to see my replies once I soft open my forum later this month.

Audioboo - Yeah, I laughed at the name a little. Embed audio files using their JavaScript player. Remember, JavaScript doesn't show up for the poster when he posts a link via AJAX (Quick Reply/inline editing). But it's there, and will be there when he refreshes/reloads the page. There's a second Audioboo definition you can toggle if JavaScript is a problem for you, but it doesn't look or work quite as a good as the JavaScript one.

Bloomberg - More News!

ClipSyndicate - Aggregate News!

CNBC - Boring News!

Dockstock - Some documents will not embed, so they've been excluded from converting. I'll try to get you guys a more universal "no media" icon for when AME uses validation like this.

eHow - And how! That one took almost a day to make work. :mad:

FileHippo - Badges for FileHippo downloads. Background image available in the gallery below.

JigZone - Completely overlooked BirdOPrey's version of this back when he first posted it. This should embed all puzzles no matter the piece number picked from the website.

MLB - Yay! Baseba...zzzzzzzzz (Kidding.)

MovShare - Should work, but since I can't browse the site, I could only verify on a couple of MovShare links I happened to already know about. Also, it's MovShare. Get a popup blocker. A good one.

MyVido1 - That is how it's spelled. :confused:

NASCAR Yay! Racin...zzzzzzzzzzzzz... A second definition is there for the Short URL that comes up with the video player. But it's an odd one. Short URLs redirect to the video source URL. So, the only way to make it work results in a video that auto-plays. Use the second one at your own discretion. The main one works the best.

OpenFile - Video hosting service.

Picasa Web Albums Slideshow - Embeds a web album as a slideshow. Doesn't quite work well with videos in an album, but that's on Google's end, not mine.

Pinterest Boards & Pins - This one was kind of a big deal for me to make work. One def will embed a Pinterest Pin using your style's tboder class as a border. The other will embed the ten latest Pins from a Pinterest Board. Complete with image linking and everything. And yes, they can be used together. Be sure to grab the Pinterest icon from the image gallery below.


TED - Should work for all TED.com Talks, except where the video source is a YouTube video.

Veevr - One def for videos and another for channels should make everything on the site embeddable.

Vevo - I honestly don't know why I don't already have a definition for this site. Seems kinda obvious.

Zippyshare - Another downloads badge for another downloads website. Optimized to the new 2.0 badges! <--Note: That's not really a thing.

Be sure to get the stuff for your stuff.

No immediate reason I can see why it's not embedding, except the most obvious, is if it's turned on. No other admin toggled it off by chance? If you PM me temp admin access, I can try to figure out what the issue is.

I'm sorry I'm not clear on this... I delete the existing definitions that I want to upgrade, then import the new updates. After that, do I need to Rebuild?

Thanks,

Jim

No, there should be no need to rebuild anything. Just delete the ones you want to replace before importing. Back up any if you think you need to before doing so. That's pretty much it.
