v1.1.2 released with some minor bug fixes:
- Youtube/Vimeo embeds are now responsive

YT short videos don't work.

This is an awesome feature.
But I don’t see any options for it in 3.4.3, and I paste a m.youtube style link in a post and no embed is done.
The GitHub repo says the plugin comes with 3.1.x and up. Am I missing something?
Plugin search in admin cp never finds a result. I enter email and it says no results , even though I can see several emailers in the list.
-
It's bundled but not activated, perhaps that's what you need to do?
-
I do not see it under installed plugins…
-
-
I finally found and installed it and it works mostly.
It doesn’t recognize https://m.youtube style URLs, so I have to manually edit the m. part out.
That’s the only embed I tried.

hi julian , iframely was showing pdfs as preview, so you did not have to click the page to read on another tab, you could just read the pdfs in the forum... Can this plugin be expanded to include pdf previews?
-
I do not know if it is possible, but I still think it would be very cool to have a pdf previews in the forum, so users do not have to leave the forum to check the pdf documents...
-
julian Just to confirm that this plugin did not come bundled when I installed it.
I found and installed and activated with no issue, but it was not part of the basic install. -
darkpollo you're right, the plugin isn't bundled with new installs
-
julian works fine, thanks
would be nice to have links opened in new tab or configurable at least -
thanks for commenting benyto . The plugin follows NodeBB's behaviour in not modifying anchor target. The end user can ctrl-click the link to open in a new tab, shift-click to open in new window, etc.

I installed the plugin via dashboard plugins.
NodeBB v3.10.3
I did a rebuild, the plugin appears, but saving settings does not work.
In addition, I have this error in the console: “admin.min.js?v=o50k63atqko:1 error loading admin/plugins/link-preview
Error: Cannot find module './plugins/link-preview'”What did I do wrong?
-
What kind of hosting? Some container based and one click installs do not support updating plugins from dashboard. Please try to do the same thing from command line.
