which will denote that the site is related to those things. Here's the original file for Bandcamp for example. That can help you find which sites are related to audio and tag threads accordingly.Thanks Joshy, I'll keep looking for an addon. Maybe your information will help!I've never had to deal with XenForo's search engine, I assume you'd need a custom add-on to extend it. Maybe add some metadata to the search index to denote a thread is related to audio.
As far as this add-on is concerned, I generate the configuration for those media sites based on a set of XML files that contain more information than is required by XenForo's system. For instance, if you look into the source files you can find elements such as<tag>music</tag>
or<tag>podcasts</tag>

... I'm trying to find a way to add a few AUDIO media links to our SEARCH. Like, if someone wants to find threads with Soundcloud, Bandcamp, Dropbox, Mediafire, attachments with mp3s, etc?
... any idea? I checked the Advanced Search addon but didn't see these options.
Did you try searching for "media=xxx" with AndyB's advanced search? (replace xxx with the media code from Joshy's add on). It works on my forum. AndyB's advanced search will return posts that have the media=xxx BB code.
That's not something I'd consider in the scope of this add-on. I focus on embedding content, and this is more of a cosmetic feature. IMO it would be better handled as part of a Discord-centric add-on.Is it possible to add a fancy "join" button for when someone posts a Discord invite?
Don't understand more than basic css. That's my upper limit of knowledge.Note that you can also create a custom media site for yourself, using Xenforo's admin panel.
Neither of the current ones (nix or 8wr) offer it, so I was wondering. Since I can't code (cept extremely basic CSS stuff), I wouldn't be able to make that happen myself.That's not something I'd consider in the scope of this add-on.

XenForo 2.3 adds a new feature allowing public content to be embedded in any page. This update adds support for your forum to embed the publicly accessible content of any XenForo 2.3+ forum that has enabled this feature.
How to configure: go to your admin panel, go either to this add-on's options or to theXenForo
entry in theBB code media sites
menu, then add the hostname of the XenForo 2.3+ forum you want to embed from. Make sure that the target website runs XenForo 2.3, which at this time is a very short list.
I don't see it in the list of download, is there a special beta testing program?installed it. tested it on my board.
Mind telling me more about that? I'm not sure what a node link is, as I don't administer a XenForo forum myself. I understand that most public pages in XF are "nodes" but is there a non-thread type of page that is incorrectly embedded? Otherwise, if you're talking about non-public stuff then yeah, that's expected even if that's not ideal. It would be possible to test whether the page is public in order to avoid those false positives (a URL incorrectly identified as public) but the other side of that coin is if the target forum uses Cloudflare and your server receives a CAPTCHA challenge then it will prevent any embed.also looks like non embeddable links do not result in a fake embed (like node links)

appear as regular unfurled links and not empty embeds which is nice. on some services like imgur.com
, certain urls can result in dead embeds (for example https://imgur.com/upload
) coz they match the url structure of embeddable content. h5p.orgI don't know what H5P is, as far as I can tell it's not on the list of supported sites. If you're trying to upload your own videos, that's not in the scope of this add-on. Check out XenForo Media Gallery, see if that's what you're looking for.
