Description:

This is unlike my past video mod which used bbcode, this one is more simple and works much better for the user too. What it does it parses the url when the post is viewed, so it will work with past links and new links.

Thanks! Just knowing what is going on helps out...I thought something had broke!

Hi there...ive been having issues with the latest version with regards to the break.com vid embedding. it doesnt seem to work. for example, when i place the following on my forum:

http://break.com/index/9th-grade-+++++-on-maury.html

it automatically converts into:

http://break.com/index/9th-grade-+++....html?matchid=

and there will be no embedding... any idea what might be going on? thanks!

first off thats a bad url. second the matchid is something i had to add to get break to work. try it with a real video url.

Ok,

Thanks for the explanation.

unfortuntaely all video links do the same thing.

for example, if i link this on my forum
http://www.break.com/index/shrimp-ru...treadmill.html

i get this
http://www.break.com/index/shrimp-ru....html?matchid=

and the video doesnt embed

Hi, this is a great mod...I've "installed it" and I'm pleased. I noticed that someone commented earier about the title variable and it was mentioned that you need vBSEO for this to function, but then someone else mentioned placing </a> after the link and all was well.

I've tried this and it does not work. If someone could elaborate in case I'm missing something, that would be great, but otherwise I'm just getting the URL in the title bar.

Thanks again

Any one have any suggestions to "port" this into other places people can post around my website? VbJournal, Vbalinks, etc? Certain plugins I can copy/paste into some place in the other code?
