Support Youtube not showing

[Stefan24123]

I'm having an issue with how YouTube links appear on my XenForo forum. Instead of properly embedding the video, the preview only shows a generic YouTube description in German, rather than fetching the actual video title and thumbnail.


I want it to be like this.

Hello @Stefan24123
Is turned on the YOUTUBE in the Media Sites? (Admin - Content - Media sites)

Yes

install this addon Add-ons - s9e Media Sites - Updates

I added that addon and it doesn't work

hi, you should just be able to copy the full URL link in youtube (example)

then go ahead and paste it into MEDIA url within your thread/post.

And once posted should be displayed within your thread/post I am using older version Xf 2.2.13 but most or all versions are the same. Are you using 2.3.x as maybe an issue

XF 2.2 - Embeding YouTube videos without an extra addon

Unfortunately, @Lukas W. is also stopping now. That's why we want to get away from extra addons. Of course, this is not possible for everything. How can I display YouTube videos in the forum? For many years we have been using the addon from JoshyPHP That actually works well. But why not just...

Goo to admin panel/messages and enable this function
