Topic: If anyone spots Forum Errors, please post here

YouTube embedding seems to be completely borked again. I'm using the shortened URL retrieved under the Share feature and I keep getting told it's an invalid link.

I'll just bombard a bunch of videos and see if any of them work.

Well FFS, they work! Does the YouTube tag not work in certain subforums on this board? Every time lately I've made a post trying to embed a YouTube video, things get completely fucked up, as in here. It gives me this message:

[ Invalid YouTube link ]

and changes the YouTube URL to this:

(youtube)(url=https://youtu.be/D8FH8NI4U4Y)https://youtu.be/D8FH8NI4U4Y(/url)(/youtube)

I don't get why it's changing it to a clickable URL instead of an embedded video.

[Abnormal Freak]

THOUGH I HAVE A THEORY!

Every time I click Preview Post just to make sure I used the correct URL (I keep forgetting if it's the short one from the Share function or what you get from your browser), and even if it's the proper link with embed tags, clicking Post someone mucks it all up.

GOING TO TEST THAT THEORY NOW!



Edit: That's not it either. My only answer: The YouTube embed tag is a finicky sonovabirchtree.

I know! I really wish we could've kept AEVA Media.
But now it's a paid plugin so fuck that noise.

The embed tag is funky.

I hear that users have been having issues with the Forum kicking up errors.

Please post those errors here, whenever you are finally able to post.

Sometimes the forum takes too long to load and I just call it quits for that day.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Yes, lately that's been a server/host issue as well.
Please note that we ARE working on it.

It looks like one of our anti-spambot plugins may be outdated and is messing things up while looking for IPs.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

I got ahold of the guy who developed the plugin that may be causing the database issues.
Hopefully he gets back to me.

[Shiroi Koumori]

Cool.

I'd also like to note that someone from deviantart was interested in reading the Ricordanza novel but since the forum is "dead" to them, they just requested that I post the translation on my DA account, which I did.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

That's fine.

Today when I enter the forum I get ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED, but now after 10 minutes approx I let myself in, here I am

Hoping this is the right place for this. In the "Fan-games' Sub Thread" in Fan Stuff, all the links to CV dungeon threads give 404 errors.

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

Ugh, that's a weird one.
I hope it's just the links that are bad, and not that the posts are gone.
(I have not done any board thread purges ever so that should not be the case).

Thanks! I will look into it.  In the mean time, attempt using the Search Feature for those games and hopefully you can find the original thread.
We may just have to fix that one initial post.
