Whenever I use embed video in easyblog and insert the youtube video link, no video appear only the actual link that I inserted. Here is a screen shot of the link as it appears once my blog is published >>> [embed=videolink]{\"video\":\"http://youtu.be/m75BMgpI-hM\",\"width\":\"400\",\"height\":\"225\"}[/embed]. Can you please help me to understand why this link appear instead of the actual video for viewing, thank you.

Hello Ruth,

I have checked your issue and it seems like the page you gave me is the com_content page which is from Joomla Articles. The embed video feature in EasyBlog is only for EasyBlog. It does not cross over to Joomla Articles. If you want to embed videos in Joomla Articles you will have to use another plugin for this. Hope this helps.

Thanks!

I embedded a video in a test blog and after posting the video won't show.

July 6th Calgary Stampede Rodeo show in high definition. Weather was cloudy and ground was wet but still was a very good show!

[embed=videolink]{\"video\":\"http://youtu.be/sJ0t8MmR7x8\",\"width\":\"400\",\"height\":\"225\"}[/embed]

I added the this to the php.ini file on my server:

1. magic_quotes_gpc = Off

I tested the video again and it still does not show. ???? Not sure why? I am also having issues with getting blog images to show.

Hello Randall,

Sorry for the late reply. I suspect the issue here is same as your blog image issue. I have sent you a screenshot regarding the magic_quites_gpc Hope this helps.

Thanks!
