[nodebb-plugin-iframely] IFramely Embeds
-
@Kowlin Right, make the plugin able to connect to a self-hosted API, but don't include the self-hosted API in the plugin.

Thank you! It's very useful to be able to insert a lot of things.
Sometimes I miss to be able to use it as we do for images:
![](http://www.somevideo.com)
gots embed andwww.somevideo.com
is just a link.Because sometimes you feel that if you embed so many things in one post, the people who browser from the mobile or old computer aren't going to be able to see it properly.

Hello,
A simple question:
does a configuration page exist for the plugin?I disable all the possible plugins in conflit like nodebb-embed-videos or nodebb-plugin-soundcloud then i have activate this plugin... And i was surprised, i don't find a way to configure the api or the domain to use. Moreover, i don't see any new button in the post editor?
I have trying to install iframely on my own. It seems to work but it unfortunately shut down when i quit the terminal for now. I'm beginning with nginx and node.js, and i don't understand why nodebb is remaning alive therefore iframetly seems to shut down.
It could be a really good addition because all the embed plugins don't work all well.
Thank you in advance for the help.

@julian after remove some plugin, reinstall and restart the forum, i get the configuration page.
I configure my api adress (http://iframely.custom.com/iframely) and try to test it in the post editor when the api is alive:
http://iframely.custom.com/iframely?url=https://soundcloud.com/tontondavidmusic/medley-oct-2014 > it worksSo i add directly in a post the url like that:
[texte du lien](https://soundcloud.com/jackedradio/afrojack-presents-jacked-radio-week-23)
https://soundcloud.com/tontondavidmusic/medley-oct-2014
Nothing append. Have i missed something?
Could it be useful to have a button in the editor?jB

This would be wanted behaviour. You've specified link text. So this takes precedence over the embed.
The embed should be fired from just a link. And not full markdown.

@a_5mith i have tried the both, i think.
I check and i notice my config option are not saved.
I can fill the address, http://iframely.custom.com/iframely or http://iframely.custom.com (i'm not sure) for example. I save the page. I reload nodebb, the page, clean the cache. My config is still saved.
But when i came back a day later, in another session, the page is still empty.Could it be a problem wth the plugin install?
Or nodebb?[edit] i confirm the config is not save. I don't have the notification. how can i check the database to verify if the configuration was solved?

Hi,
I made a issue on a github related with my plugin ( nodebb-plugin-magicblock )Option to embed urls with a special class or a attribute? ยท Issue #15 ยท NodeBB-Community/nodebb-plugin-iframely
Hi, I really love a iframely with nodeBB. I have to say "thank you" first. But the only problem is that it embed every naked URLs and sometimes it's so messy. Is it possible I can get a option to specify a class or attribute of link (...
GitHub (github.com)
And also, I implemented what I suggested by my self.
It seems that the iframely plugin doesn't have high priority to a developement team, I'm fully understand that can be.
I just worried if issues of iframely plugin are just out of eyes by chance, and make a post here to press the teamCould any developement member look at this?
Additionally, there is another important and urgent ( than mine ) issue.

How to deploy Iframely API to your own servers
Self-host the open-source web embeds parsers for hundreds of domains

I still haven't worked out a few kinks, but I've been able to get it up and running on my site. It's not as effective though for normal sites. Take a look at the link above.
Here's what a non-paid embed for the same page looks like on my site:
