Iframely help

@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.

Hope someone else finds this useful.
