Embedding Video

TappedOut forum

Posted on April 25, 2021, 6:30 p.m. by tribal-kai

Hello all!

For a few months now I haven't been able to embed YouTube videos into my descriptions. It used to work and I haven't changed anything at my end.

Just wondering what I could be doing wrong?

I've used both TappedOut's "embed a video" function as well as copying the code from YouTube's share feature. Nothing works.

Would be great if someone with more knowledge could shed some light one this!

Thank you,

tribalkai

I don't see anything wrong in your profile. How are you trying to embed a video as link embed will only work on general links, while images don't do videos.

I'll put the html I'm using below:


As played on The eedi-H Channel:

< iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hV2fqmFScSc" allowfullscreen > < /iframe >


I'm not using the obvious spaces that shouldn't be there when I put it in the description i.e. no spaces between the < >

I've also tried copying straight from the YouTube share feature:

< iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hV2fqmFScSc?start=30" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen>

But nothing happens there either.

Can you try again and let me know if it doesn't work? If you can give me the link to a deck where it's not working as well.

ivaggione Well it seems to be working again now!

I’ve done nothing different but the videos are appearing on my page all of a sudden after months of no luck.
