In this forum you can write about anything that does not fit in other forums.
This includes generic Oric talkings and things that are totaly unrelated but want to share with people here :)

Media player extension

Post by Dbug »

Hi,
I installed an extension to the board, which now allows you to add a "[media]" keyword to directly embed videos in your message.

Here is an example:


This uses

Code: Select all

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6nYpGEe4lM[/media]

Great addition!

Is there a way to include videos in a collapsed form by default so that they do not take too much space on the post?
It could show the URL first, then expand when clicked upon, ideally with a way to collapse it again.

The English Amiga Board has such a feature and it is really nice.
