As this problem has been resolved in the mod support thread, I'll mark this solved.

Bringing this back to life, because I do NOT want to install any more Mods on my forum.

Where do I put the iframe / "code"?


Here is the embed code I got from FaceBook.

<iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsuzanne.brean%2Fvideos%2Fvb.100000182789487%2F1363377960344950%2F%3Ftype%3D3&show_text=0&width=560" width="560" height="315" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowTransparency="true" allowFullScreen="true"></iframe>



Thank you in advance for information on how to do this.

Be Well,

Of course that only works for an admin user.

Why this prejudice against mods?

I had one forum with over 200 mods installed..  and it worked perfectly

[Siirist]

PERFECT!!!   

Thank you lurkalot!!!

I don't get it. It seems that http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/HTML is sending users the wrong way.

I simply choose NOT to have members posting / embedding videos on the forum, and this is the way to ensure that.


It seems that as I recall from all these days gone by that over and over again, it was stated that:
1) Mods can cause other Mods to not work
2) or installing a Mod would cause problems with a Mod already installed
3) or a user needed to install Mods in a particular order

Just the way I remember it. However, I go all the way back to ver. 1.1

Some mods do not work well together... some need a little massaging to work with others...
True...

But, you almosy always get errors during the install process which lets you know there is some overlap.   It is not a reason to avoid mods just because they are mods
