O 18,512 Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 @aardvarked @lucretius @hdcantona What's the easiest way to embed streamable.com videos on this forum? It automatically embeds them on other forums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC this site hasn't ever supported streamable embedding? it's usually just a link that's in the post because inserting other media doesn't work with Streamable as far as I know. Maybe @aardvarked can shed some light, probably something to do with the board software O 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Confusion amongst staff as to who was who (well I personally brought it up, so the confusion was from myself). Our system doesn’t appear to tell us when a member changes name and just for clarity we are disabling the function. If you really want a name change, PM one of the staff members and we can see what we can do. hdcantona and rezzy 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could just set up new tables to store OlderUsername and NewUsername, when they attempt the name change take the id's and store them. That way you could always do a lookup if you want, or retrieve the data and post it somewhere on the admins board. Or, on the profiles could have an "Aliases" section which keeps track of all old usernames. Again just storing any name data in a db and retrieving it. ..but yeah, probably just easier to not allow people to rename. 😅 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's the forum software itself, or more likely streamable not making their clips easily embeddable so people have to click them to see them Shoot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aardvarked 10,227 Posted May 29, 2019 Report Share Posted May 29, 2019 Have looked into streamable embedding before and couldn't find a way to enable it without developing something bespoke. Used to be easier to tweak some code and allow embedding from other sites in the previous versions. Shoot and hdcantona 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure who you are addressing with this, but clearly you should stick to interfering with kangaroos. You appear to be good for little else. "Nae bother".
