Implemented Media links

[tommydamic68]

I just tested linking media into a post with a Youtube link - works awesome! I see you have :

• Dailymotion
• Facebook
• Liveleak
• Metacafe
• Vimeo
• YouTube

Can Instagram be added? That would be awesome!

You can add whichever (compatible) media sites you wish on your own installation.

Wouldn't the BBcode tags have to be preset into the software?

Ok - thanks!

Can anyone confirm Instagram works with Xenforo?

 

[Paul B]

Try it on the demo for yourself.

I created this add-on some time ago.

I have no idea if it still works, but it should do:

Chris - can you shoot me over the xml file so i can try it on my demo site?

Thanks.

It won't work on the demo, you can't install add-ons.

shucks!

The only reason I am so persistent is that many of my members are also part of our Instagram followers and would love to be able to share their Instagram pictures on the site.

Knowing the quality of Chris Deeming, it will still work or he will be able to update it if necessary. You should be fine.

Just tested it on 1.2 it works fine.

Awesome - thanks! @EQnoble

 

[tommydamic68]

@EQnoble is it full size in the post or more of an attachment size.

 

[EQnoble]

The bbcode is setup as the thumbnail size.

You would have to ask Chris how to change that one as I use the iframe for this site and he uses a and img tags.

I would assume that you modify the t in ?size=t to change the height but I don't know what other variables instagram uses which is why I chose to just go the iframe/responsive route when I made mine.
