Embed still works but no content appears and it tells you to open the post in Telegram to read the content.

Dang, that would be most uncool of Telegram if they intend to do that widely. I can confirm that at least the Durov post shows that behaviour on my board. The other posts from the Telegram account embed fine. Does https://t.me/telegram/83 appear correctly on yours?

I know that some accounts are only accessible via the app but as far as I can tell, they're still in a minority. At least for now. Let me know if you hear anything, thanks.

hah. that embedded fine. so i guess they are specifically blocking proper embedding of durov's posts. which also explains why telegram news embed loads fine on their embed code page!

@JoshyPHP Twitter embeds not working... You can check:

PS: If it's X, it's working.

@Enes3078 Both versions works for me on my test board running the latest version.

What should we do? I don't find any clue.

I just copy and paste the video link on my site which seems to always work. Did you try that?

Not video, Twitter link. You can't see because of embed.

Oh my mistake. Gotcha.

After posting it, it should appear as two embedded tweets.

If you edit the post, original links should be replaced with the following BBCodes:

[MEDIA=twitter]1838591088124191197[/MEDIA]
[MEDIA=twitter]1838591088124191197[/MEDIA]

In this post on your site, I see a text link rather than an embedded tweet. If you edit this post, what's his text content? It might be the URL in plain text, or a [URL] BBCode. Either way, I see that in this specific post, the tweet is not embedded by the add-on. It remains a normal link, which is then replaced automatically by Twitter's script. That's why it doesn't match the look or behaviour the add-on's embed.

No, it's not URL bbcode.

 

[Enes3078]

Btw if I change it to twitter, there is no error. @JoshyPHP

No, it's not URL bbcode.

There is no x media site in the add-on, there's only a twitter media site that supports both domains. That's why you see [MEDIA=twitter] when you post a new link. That [MEDIA=x] BBCode was generated by something else. Maybe you created a media site called x some time ago?

Durov is embedding properly again!

 

[JoshyPHP]

Apparently, the French investigation(s) into Durov/Telegram were dropped yesterday. Gotta be related somehow.

 

[80sDude]

This doesn't work with facebook reels right? I can't get any of them to work.

 

[JoshyPHP]

It should work with reels, what URLs did you try?

This is one of them. It won’t let me post it on this thread so I had to put it between the code tags.

https://fb.watch/u_N3-tDeuH/?fs=e&s=TIeQ9V

 

[JoshyPHP]

This URL works fine on my test board. The issue with short URLs such as fb.watch is that they need to be resolved to their canonical form in order to be usable. That's done automatically by your forum's server, but it is sometimes identified as bot activity and blocked by Facebook. If your server is unable to resolve the short link, you can resort to post the canonical link instead. In this case: https://www.facebook.com/100067995486523/videos/1619300282263906/

That’s exactly the problem and thank you.
