@יצחק-מרדכי-טאבאק do you use ur own hosted iframely or do you use iframely api?

[יצחק מרדכי טאבאק]

@dogs I don't know, i just installed the plugin, that why i'm asking.... what i should to do after installing?

[dogs]

@יצחק-מרדכי-טאבאק

you could host it by yourself

or you can use iframely api and paid for that service

[dunlix]

@dogs wait I dont pay for Iframely and it works on my forum

[יצחק מרדכי טאבאק]

@dunlix so... maybe you tell me how did you do this?

[dunlix]

@יצחק-מרדכי-טאבאק
On the plugin page (your.site/admin/plugins/iframely), click where it says in purple box "Get API Key here." it brings you to a site, click Sign Up and Try (yellow box) fill in info and when logged in paste API key into box in Forum, no need to fill out anything else
but I think this is a free trial not sure

[יצחק מרדכי טאבאק]

@dunlix thank you so much!!!!!

[dunlix]

@יצחק-מרדכי-טאבאק

Your welcome. Again I’m pretty sure it’s a free trial so I’m not sure how long it will work.

But even if you self host it, it's very easy to install and run.
There are just a few steps:

1. Download & Install Deps

git clone https://github.com/itteco/iframely.git
cd iframely
npm install

2. Create a basic config-File

cp config.local.js.SAMPLE config.local.js

3. Run the Server

node server

And you are ready to go.
After that you can configure caching and whatever. But the basic server is installed and running within 2 minutes.

@dogs
K, I will look into this when my trial is over.

@dunlix Self hosting works great but for some reason now youtube won't embed. Hopefully, someone knows how to get this fixed.

[dunlix]

@torn2 I don't self-host yet so I wouldn't know how to help you. Maybe it is exempted in the plugin's settings page in the ACP?

No, it's been the same since we installed it a while ago. The only exemption is twitter because we use a different plugin for that one... as that one also stopped embedding a couple months ago.

YouTube not embedding just started happening and we haven't made any changes.

This is how it looks when someone embeds a YouTube link.

@torn2 That doesn't look like anything you've done maybe its a problem on Google's end? or maybe just you and not your other Forum users

[dunlix]

@torn2 could you send me a link to your forum? (in private chat if you prefer)
