Fixed the video embed thing. Just post the link, the forum will do the rest. And it embeds fucking everything. Not my work, I just installed a mod.

... Appears to need flash.

What happens if you haven't?

Image of the video that should be there, and nothing else. a link would do nicely.

Wonder what flash element is the blocker. Youtube itself uses flash doesn't it? I've got a scriptblocker on and it doesn't stop it working.

Dropped in favour of their html player. Is it the plugin itself that needs flash?

I'm not sure if youtube still has flash as legacy support, but most stuff now seems to do HTML5, as it's not shit.

The source files have a pair of SWF for FLV and MP3 formats but no flash. Dunno, must be the mod but I only installed it. No idea how it works.

Testing a different code (I copied and pasted it myself!)

Added a button for the short YouTube URL (i.e. the one from thee share button):

Uuuuugh! I think the SQL database is shitting itself. Help!

it does say it is.

It was previously fretting about some other plugins. I disabled them, now it's complaining about this one. It also complains about the forum. However I know nothing about MySQL, so I'd probably fuck it up even worse if I tried to fix it.

Strict standards warnings! Some kind of code monkey things are happening still.

I know. Unfortunately until someone who knows more than me about the backend steps up it's going to stay that way.

They upgraded the php version on us, which accounts for the error. I'll have a go at fixing it by upgrading/downgrading us but a downgrade isn't a permanent solution as they claim they are withdrawing support for the old version. Not sure how true that is, as they still have the previous version as an option, but of course older versions may have security issues.

The other thing that can make the strict standard errors go away (but not fix them) is to change the errorlevel in php.ini, so I'll give that a go too.

Should be fixed..hopefully

Nice one FJ, looks to be all working again.
