MG 2.0 Sharing media (video) on other platforms

[Mr Lucky]

Is there any way to share media video items which have been uploaded to XFMG on other platforms, e.g. on wordpress or on vbulletin (via a custom bbcode)?

You would just need to use the absolute URL, which is typically possible using standard img bb code tags

 

[Mr Lucky]

Can you explain, or point me towards some documentation? Thanks.

I wasn't aware of any bbcode on Wordpress.

I've never used WP so wouldn't have a clue - you would need to check with them what image embedding options there are for their software.

I can do that of course, wordpress was just an example, it could also be vbulletin or any other platform that I want to embed the media onto from xenforo media gallery.

But first I want to know if it is even possible form the xenforo end to embed just a video that has been uploaded to media gallery.

Interested to hear from anyone who has done this.

Not to worry, done it now (with iframe) but if anyone knows a better way please let me know

Ah, there is a problem because videos can be installed in various different numbered directories within the path /data/xfmg/video/
