Hi!

One thing I would really like in the comments section i forum or group is the possibility to share or upload a video, audio file directly to the comment instead of uploading it throu you modul on the profile page.

Maybye drag and drop?

Thank you

This can be done already - checkout the Embed module - https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/58/editor-embedded-media

Hi, Yes, I know its there... you embedd stuff you already have uploaded on your profile page.

But if you are commenting on a forum its not very intuitive to first leave the discussion, go to your profile page, find the right menu, upload a video clip, fill in all the text and then return to the discussion and then embedd it.

Its like going to washington for the sights but you have to take a detour to island to buy the tickets. ;)

What if one could upload other medias like videos directly in the editor..(Like you do with with images)
It could automaticly be added to your profile aswell (if you want) Like facebook.

Even drag and drop? Fill in the info later.

You can already embed any Youtube or Vimeo video within a discussion post or a comment. It does NOT have to be uploaded in your profile/account or residing on your site at all- you will be simply pasting in a Youtube url for example, and the video will appear in your post and be playable right there. Here's an example from my site:

Did you install and activate the jr Embed Module?
