Hi,

 

I sometimes link to stuff here from youtube, and on going back to the post after posting it - the link has completely dissapeared.  This is just copy - pasting the link...

 

 

So just hoping Etta James' greatest hits got linked to above.

 

Edit: Nope, nothing - but it appears before I click post.  Any ideas?  Much appreciated.

You're probably having a plugin issue with your browser, because these forums automatically convert youtube links to videos we can play. So if that video isn't showing up, it's probably because your browser has blocked it.

 

Here's what your post looks like right now:

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

I've had youtube videos go, as in the media window disappears, after a video post has been up a while. Then I viewed the same topic on another computer where I wasn't logged in and it would be there.

 

Odd. Or maybe just a fluke.

That is all.

 

One thing I noticed is, it will never show me a media if using https instead of http. Youtube videos are usually from a belgian domain if you use the share button (giving you something like https://youtu.be/blahblah (with the s in https that prevents it from actually showing)

That's cool, so long as people can see/access it. 

 

And people need to hear Etta James.

I usually start getting just links if I post a lot of videos at once

 

The short youtu.be links never work for me but SSL or not doesn't seem to matter for me

 

Sorry, I'm sure that's not very helpful either

I don't think you're allowed to post more than two videos per post - they start becoming normal links if you do.

Yeah, when on a page with Youtube, FF blocks it as the connection is not secure, disabling that allowed the videos to show
