Embedding tweets
-
@Kilgore You can add a picture of the tweet and a link. Not sure how to do anything more advanced.
-
@brad
Yeah I tried the twitter embedding function (html code to paste) but it doesn't load it in. I wanted to post a clip. -
@Kilgore I don't know. Maybe there's a plugin. If you find it I'll install
-
@brad Have you seen this post? https://bioenergetic.forum/topic/499/proposal-embedding-plugins
If not Ill find something else.
-
@Kilgore I replied on that thread - thanks for the pointer - but that plugin isn't maintained to the point of not being compatible with the current nodebb version. https://github.com/NicolasSiver/nodebb-plugin-ns-embed/issues/45
-
Cant find anything other than that and this: https://www.npmjs.com/package/nodebb-plugin-iframely?activeTab=readme
I think simple embedding would work with HTML

@brad we getting there
-
@Kilgore i see a black screen
-
@brad @Kilgore Looks like it's working, somewhat. Not sure why that tweet didn't load. I installed it and got an API key.
-
@brad Okay the youtube one loaded in for me. Not the twitter ones tough.
-
This post is deleted! -
@Kilgore Also - I don't think I can go with this solution as it requires me to host a server (not going to do that) or pay for their API (which at our traffic level would be quite pricey). Best bet might be patching this: https://github.com/NicolasSiver/nodebb-plugin-ns-embed/issues/45
-
@brad Okay. I thought you self-hosted.
-
Thank you gentlemen
-
@ThinPicking @Kilgore I'm not self hosting. If someone else would like to host I can use their server. I just don't want to deal with another server right now. My account will be suspended tomorrow - we'll see what happens with the service.
-
Ah! Ok, I didn't read above properly. Just saw some embeds and lit up.
Allegedly where there's a will there's a way. And I will. The NodeBB server/instance is yours right, you have root access to it? (Just so I can direct some reading.)
-
@ThinPicking No, I'm using a hosted version, so I don't have root on the server. I do have access to the admin console of the nodebb instance though.
-
Ok, I'm running with it. To be continued...
-
They hate me. They're calling me a cheap freeloader. @Kilgore @ThinPicking
