hello, i need some help using the admin  tag to embed video into my forum. whenever i use the tag to embed video i get a small scroll box with a 404 error code inside  :'( idk why. but then i thought it might be the theme (blackstorm theme) so i created a test forum using the same theme and everything work i was able to embed videos fine. then i thought the pretty urls mod might have had something to do with it so i installed that on the test forum but the embed code still worked so thats not it.

izzy233

in the code where its not working it has <div class="inner" id="msg_768">&nbsp;
in the code where it is working it has      <div class="inner" id="msg_8">

does anybody know why that is? or how i can fix it?

Remove all of that div stuff. It's not what you need to embed. That's actually part of the post area and will be determined for you.

i get those codes from the source codes from the post in the working forum and the non working forum thats not what i put in the post myself. all i put is the embed codes and in my test forum it works fine but in my main forum it doesnt. i copied what i seen different from the source code.

mashby

And again, remove the div stuff. orion310591 provided code to try out.

lol i cant. the code that he put is exactly what i put in the post area. i got the div stuff from the source code of the forum. thats not what i typed in all i type in is the embed code. i just view the source so i can copy and paste here to see if someone can identify the problem. there is something wrong with the forum not with what i put in. i copied and pasted from one forum to the other and it worked in the new forum but not my main forum. does anybody know where i can go to edit the divs of the posts?

izzy233

ok been searching on line all day and found something else that may help you help me. whenever i embed something then look through the source code the embed is surrounded by / (slashes) and in the working forum it isn't i think thats whats causing the problem. does any body know why the slashes show up? if not where would i go to edit the code for posts?
