Hey Guys

Just checking is it by design that not all embeddable items don't display correctly in events?

IE try and embed a youtube video, playlist, audio file etc in an event and it just outputs the tag code.

Thanks

Gary

Just embeded a poll into an event. It worked as expected.

Make sure the profile that created the event has the "Convert Embed Tags" checked under Active Text Formatters at:
YOUR-SITE.COM/core/admin/quota

Hi Michael

Thanks for the reply, yes these Convert Embed Tags are checked for the admin profile.

I don't own polls yet so cant test that but see what happens when I try to embed a playlist or an audio file.
Jamroom Embed

I am probably missing something obvious.

I was going through the same situation a few months ago getting just the Tag code..i forgot what it was that I did to get it to work..but I believe it was a conflict with some thing custom I had done to my template

Good point @boplive. Gary, can you check to see if the same thing happens when its on one of the default skins. Elastic perhaps.

Another thing to check is that the "Convert Embed Tags" are allowed for Dazzy's quota. Thats what it looks like. I'll check here to see if i can reproduce it.

If your using a custom template, make sure the modifiers on the output are the same as the latest in in the item_details.tpl of the module its for.

eg, for the blog details page, the modifiers look like this:

{$item.blog_text|jrCore_format_string:$item.profile_quota_id:null:nl2br}

That will allow the text formatters to work.

Here is a video about turning on the modifiers for each quota.

My template started by cloned Media Pro, and switching back to this, lucid, or elastic results in the same. Also download Nova which I never previously had installed and same result.

As you can see above Dazzy is pat of the admin quota and that quota has convert tags enabled.

I will check the other stuff later when I have more time.

It works fine in blogs but not in events. as stated, so maybe that module needs to be updated?

I've just updated the jrEvents module in the marketplace to the latest code version 1.0.4.

Update your system and the issue should be fixed.

If its not immediately, run the integrity check and clear the caches.

Thanks.
