XF 2.2 URL unfurl - limitations?

[creativeforge]

Testing why only one (1) of the URLs are showing formatted on my forum. Seemingly none are showing here.

I like the warmth of the Pathfinder but can't find solo demo samples (playing one string, no 3rds or 5ths).

There are a few other candidates in the same vein, cellos that can be played in solo form.

For example:

Cello One

Screenshot. As you see, only one URL shows as formatted. Why can't they all URL show in a box?

You can test URLs in the ACP to determine why they don't unfurl.

Typically it will be due to missing data, or a payload which is too large.

Thanks Brogan,

OK for that second URL, but the first URL one and the third URL both report no error. Yet only the third one shows.

► Are you saying that this is based on the website's specific coding so nothing can be done?

Thanks!

Yes. unfurling relies on the source data/URL being valid.

OK, thanks Brogan, that is helpful to know. I was thinking there was a setting on my end that caused this. But it has nothing to do with me.

the site seems to have an XML namespace before the html namespace... that's not valid.

Hi Brogan, I'm having an issue with unfurling from a user who has used links successfully before. testing the Unfurling I notice the RAW section is missing, is this an option I can enable? This happened after the last update.


Thanks!

It's not user specific and not all links work for the reasons already stated.
