You Tube Links

Ed....why doesn't posting You Tube links work anymore on AB ?

I've just spotted that distinction Mikey, thank you.

I'll have a look to see what we can do to fix it across all browsers.

Anyone on an ipad who can test?

That was using the Edge browser. I asked this question on Saturday and got no reply. Ahh well.

the youtube link field is fine for me; see my post above. (That is, if you can see it - can anyone do so?) Maybe it just has trouble with some browers and not others?

ABEd,

I posted in the YouTube box from my iPad. I will now do the same link by posting in answer box.

What happens is, those of us whose links will only "show" to some when posted in the tube link box have to post in the main answer box. But here is the thing, we cannot read any links posted in the discrete link box, and some people cannot read our tube posts that are directly in the main answer box. It all started on Jordyboy9's thread on Thursday night, and strangely enough after a post was removed. I do not know who posted the hooked answer or what the content was, but it is a strange coincidence. I have been wondering whether something was embedded in the removed post via an url and perhaps even opened by some of us. Perplexing.

Cheers.

This was posted on my lappie. I have just fired it up to see if it works in the link box.

I can see all the you tube posts on here. I posted a video on Mamyas thread as a tribute to Mrs O and I could see it but don't kniw if others could. I'm on Firefox.

Nope lappie is the same, but works in the answer box.

Morning all. I have had a quick look around at the music links that were posted, or not as the case may be, and they all now seem to be loading :-)
I don't suppose Ed would tell us what happened, just interested that's all Ed.
