I'm having problems with the migrator. It seems to have stripped out some html code during the import. Here is an example. On this page: http://www.healthyplace.com/2015backup31/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=entry&id=1044&Itemid=231

This code should be at the bottom of the blog.
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/M8TT1zH9jJs?list=PLdLpWGRCe3SOxSN4Z5Oi_gZE2UF2rNq_f"; frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

All that is there is:

There is other code that was taken out. I have more separator code from wordpress that is: <!-- Read More -->

This has been taken out too.

Please help, Thanks.
Hello Donald,

May I know which migrator you were using to migrate this? And if you were using Wordpress XML migrator, can you provide us the XML file so that I can test it on my local.

Hello Donald,

I've tried to migrate the same blog and the video loads fine here: http://screencast.com/t/mErf6ytYZl . There is somewhere wrong with your site. Can you provide us your backend and FTP access so we can have a better look on your issue here?

I have added access to the site. It's strange that yours would import with the iframe correctly. Maybe this is some security setting, editor setting, from some other plugin that broke the import. I am not using anything that would take out the html code.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Donald,

I've tested the issue by migrating a single post using this file: ../administrator/components/com_easyblog/xmlfiles/testwp.xml and you can see here, the video is displayed correctly: http://www.healthyplace.com/2015backup31/index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=entry&id=4186&Itemid=231

Very strange. I just checked another post and the video was good. Then I checked another and it didn't work. Same author so it was the same xml file. Then I check the wordpress site and the bloggers only put in the link not the iframe. I'm so sorry to waste your time on this.

Thanks for your help!
