[Solved] YouTube embed not correct in proportions

Happy Snappers · 2020-04-21T07:52:30Z

I have the same issue a few people have had with the Embed plugin, that embedded video's from YouTube do not present correctly at all by just applying the link.They appear full width on the forum, but only maybe 150 pixels high! As a workaround I have the settings to 600 px high & width to 0, but that breaks on a mobile phone & will not work for every-bodies different sizes of browsers on their screens. If I make the setting 100% high, it does not work, it appears maybe 150 px high. Any help?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhJSB3CS1pE is the video. Before you tell me to disable the YouTube plugin like you have everyone else, I don't have one! :)

Another thing with wpForo Embeds - as a new user, I've still not worked out how/why a pasted URL sometimes pastes like plain text, and other times pastes like a formatted HTML link (not an embed).

Is there a simple rule of thumb to predict (and control) this behaviour?

I think I've answered my own question ! 😁

The first link that pastes as a hyperlink includes the YT channel, whereas the second link does not, and pastes as a plain text URL (and embeds correctly).
