I am not sure what I messed up, but link parsing has stopped working on my site. I honestly wouldn't even know where to begin looking for what has gone wrong.
Hello Jthm0138,

Sorry for late reply to this,
May i know which link parsing are you referring to? Check my screenshot below.
I have tried to access in your Joomla backend, but i getting this :
Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet.

Please advise.

Sorry about that, I forgot that I changed my username and password everywhere because of an unrelated issue that was brought to my attention. I have updated my login credentials here to reflect that.

Hello,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. I have checked your site and it looks like you have made a backup file in /administrator/components/com_easysocial/includes/crawler/hooks/ and this is actually causing the link parsing to fail. I have removed that file and it works fine now.

Just for your information, EasySocial is scanning that folder for adapters that can be used to process links.

Really? Does that, by chance, imply that one could build a custom parser for other tube sites, put it in that folder, and just have it work without making it call that file from another location? Because that would kind of rock, as soon as I actually figure out how to build a parser for other tube sites.

Hello,

Yep, that's the whole idea actually. In fact it's almost there because our idea is to allow "apps" to be able to parse links but this was just half way there Every single code that is written within EasySocial is always focused on extensibility (Whether practical or not is another thought though)
