Hi,

We are using the embed video option in a blog post to embed a youtube video but the video does not render. We see this in the post edit screen after adding the url of the video in the popup:

[embed=videolink]{"video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsdsbWit4OQ";,"width":"400","height":"300"}[/embed]

but on the front end it is just blank. In the source code we see:

<div class="video-container"></div>

Nothing embedded. No video.

We are using an older version of easyblog in Joomla 2.5 but are soon to upgrade. Site details added below.

Please advise.
We've resolved the issue. The iframe and embed tags were being filtered in the following theme files:
blog.item.php
blog.read.php
