[Dbug]

Just to confirm that I was finally able to update by password after using the "forgot password" functionality.

Looks like there may be some access rights on youtube embedding?

It might be the security policies doing it. I had to lax them a few times already. We will be gong back to "one page wonder" websites of the 1990s if things progress the way they are

See if youtube works now.. I had to allow youtube in the CSP options...

I seem to be blocking advert links now which is cool

If anyone has any videos which get blocked.. I need to know the URL it's coming from...

Seems youtube images come from https://i.ytimg.com so had to allow that as well.

AFAIK there are no errors anywhere now.. Famous last words

If anyone sees something which is broken or a link not working or anything at all then just let me know and I will take a look..

I have gone through the forum and replaced over 120 images which were linked to external sites. If you try to link to a external site in the future the image will not display and you will get the error in the debug console as shown previously. You need to upload images to the forum for them to show up correctly as outlined in the announcements.

Similarly with videos, currently only youtube is allowed. So any videos need to be uploaded to there else they will get blocked. Some of the external image site also hosted video. So unfortunately I cannot simply allow that site for videos because people will be linking to images again.

I have also been tweaking the backup scripts as they were forum to hang for about a minute every two hours. This should hopefully now be fixed.

Any reason not to allow Vimeo for video as well?

I can add it, not sure if we got any current links to try it..
