Inserting Video - v4.23
 

Hi,

I'm still pretty new to Vbulletin, so please understand if this is a stupid question.

I inserted a video into a message (using the insert video button) and the video shows up, but with a line of HTML code above the video. <a href="https://youtu.be/RX7UNpWqTpg" target="_blank">

This is the url I inserted into the video clip box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DRX7UNpWqTpg

And this is the resulting code that was generated by Vbulletin:

<a href=3D"https://youtu.be/RX7UNpWqTpg" target=3D"_blank"></a>[video=3Dyou=
tube;RX7UNpWqTpg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DRX7UNpWqTpg[/video<https=
://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DRX7UNpWqTpg%5b/video>]

How do I fix this?

Thank you.

it works perfectly fine on my site. Do you have any plugins or custom BBCode which do any video handling?

No plug-ins that I know of.

What's custom BBCode?

Is that a real video because it is down now..

It's working.

Here's a link to the video in the message. You can see the HTML code above the video.

This happens every time you post a video?

I just fixed it somehow. I think it had to do with line breaks. I added the video right after a line of text and that seemed to do the trick!

Thanks.

When you see a youtu.be link that means its the previe video immediately after upload (i.e. still processing before it makes the link official per say).

I have no clue how this even occurred:
As you can see something was clearly inserting "3D" into the code, I believe it tried to resolve the youtu.be link but something went wrong. I would check to ensure this does not happen again because normally things just don't go wrong out of the blue - you know? ;).

I was using the other link yesterday. The full one.:)


I think what happened is the video got highlighted in editor and then linked.. That was why I was wondering if it was happening to all videos or just the one. lol Something new every day bro! :D

Thanks guys.
