Hello. I am using the wpForo Blog Cross Posting and Embeds addons. When a YouTube link is placed in the cross-posting CUSTOM content, the embed is blank when seeing with my iPhone. Please check the attached 2 screenshots.

Google Chrome and Firefox on my MacBook Pro can show the embed. I am using the Text editor (not Visual editor) on Firefox to edit the cross-posting custom content.

Could you reproduce this issue on your side? I will privately send the link of my production site later. I found a similar topic but my issue happens with the Blog Cross Posting addon.

Hello, I privately sent an example link via your support mail since I don't want to disply the link here. Could you check the email with the same topic title? Thank you for your reply.

@cookingwithdog,

We don't find such an issue on our test websites. Probably this is something specific with this post. Please try to create another post and check if the issue exists or not. 

Also please make sure you're using the latest versions of the wpFroo and wpForo Embeds addon.

Sorry, it was actually caused by a conflict between wpForo Embeds and a popular plugin called "Embed Plus for YouTube" (active installation: 200,000+).

For the Embed Plus for YouTube settings, I switched from "Responsive for all YouTube videos" to "Responsive for only videos embedded via this plugin." It is located at YouTube Settings > Default YouTube Options > Responsive Video Sizing.

Now, YouTube embeds show up on wpForo topics without any issues.

Thank you for your support.
