Iframely help
-
Hey guys, Ivan from Iframely here. Signed up on support request. @julian @baris - please tag me next time, we'll try to keep an eye on your forum.
Because the plugin works with the cloud version, the issue in this thread is obviously about integrating Iframely self-hosted version and/or connecting it in the plugin's configuration. We'll request additional info take care of it at Iframely support. Thanks for chiming in!

@iparamonau Thanks for responding to this. Apologies for emailing support directly but I thought that this was the best course of action seeing as it's a plugin written by iframely.

Coming back with an update. Thanks to the assistance (and persistence) of @iparamonau we now have this working. I am now self-hosting, and VERY happy.
Essentially, the issue for me was that I use a subdomain of https://media.sudonix.com to facilitate the iframely installation. When @iparamonau checked, they do not permit this and expect a directory of one word. One fix later, and life is good !

I'm having a hard time understanding this. Can you explain in a little more detail what the problem was and how you solved it?

@pitaj Sure -sorry - should have included more detail. I couldn't get this to work no matter what I tried, so I was then advised to use the development branch. The iframely self hosting instance would start, log traffic requests, but nothing would happen in terms of embedding working on the front-end.
After iframely support checked their code, they did not permit directories with "." in them - so, my directory of
media.sudonix.comwould not work until they issued a patch.Now everything works as intended.

@phenomlab Thanks for circling back, and kudos to @iparamonau for stopping by to fix the plugin
Glad everything is working!

@julian I think I'll write up what's needed to get this to work - will probably publish on my own site (sudonix.com)
-
yes great idea @phenomlab

I wrote this some time ago but completely forgot to add here.
