I asked Martin to test it on Addon Demo website. It works just fine:

http://addons.wpforo.com/community/wpforo-embeds/wpforo-embeds/paged/2/#post-289

Please make sure the oEmbed is turned on in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Addons > Embeds admin page.

Also make sure you copy and paste a clean URL in editor. Don't copy links (from HTML contet).

Settings are correct but it doesn't work. All the other oembed links work  - will check for any conflicts and check back IG is one of the most popular embeds on the site.

I'm sorry but I have no clue what's wrong with your site. We could check it if you send admin login details to support[at]gvectors.com email address.

A few days ago we installed Advanced Attachments (works fine). 

Today we installed the EMBED option.  It doesn't seem to do anything at all. 

We were able to EMBED You-Tube before installing the EMBED feature but thought it would allow us to EMBED Face Book and other types of things. It does nothing but either display the URL only, or result in a blank Topic with nothing in it at all. 

What should we do or check? It's activated with the "Key" and appears to be set up correctly. 

Thanks Peter
