Problem with YouTube and PM Replies

A recent (security) update to the forum seems to have caused a couple of problems.

 

- All previous YouTube videos have disappeared from topics (eg, in the Lounge or Jokes sections). If you try to post one now, it won't show at all.

 

- Replying to PMs: if you paste in a reply that you've copied from elsewhere (eg, from your computer), and you then click "Preview", it adds HTML code inside the editor (typing box), making a mess of it.

 

Unfortunately, I've no idea whether there'll be a fix for this... If and when there is, I'll apply it and advise you of it here.

All YouTube videos should work OK now, a fix was applied for some types of YouTube.

 

However... if you use Firefox 34+ and have the latest updated Flashblock installed, all YouTube videos may not show at all on this forum; they might show OK on other sites and forums, but might not show for you on this forum - it seems to be a very erratic problem with Flashblock. The only solution is to disable/uninstall Flashblock (or wait for a fix but it could be a long wait, or install a different Flash blocker).

There's now another problem with YouTube, which is only for when viewing on iPad (possibly other tablets too).

 

The width of the embedded YouTube is narrower than it should be and chops off the left and right of it...

 

Unfortunately, it can't be fixed until whenever I next upgrade the forum (which is likely to be a while away).
