Description
It's working great I just wonder is there a way to render the object text from the template side instead having to specify the [video:] filter syntax in the node? I say that just bc even though it's simple enough for the user to type in [video:url] it would be even easy if I just had them paste the url then I made it render correctly from the node template. How would I do that or is that something that would have to be added?
#1
I second this question.
#2
I'll have to think about this, but I can see the use for it. It should be added as a setting, so site admins can decide. Patches welcome.
Marking #416724: Tagless format as duplicate.

Marked #221719: parsing as duplicate. Mentioned issue has link to a Simple Machine forum plugin that might be useful.

Thanks subscribe.
#5
subscribing - would be perfect.
#6
Agree this would be a useful feature to 'dumb down' the content creation process by non-technical people.
#7
I agree also. It would seem there should be some simple way to do this without adding a special tag, at least for YouTube. Could there be some way to make a filter that detects a YouTube URL and adds the tag?
For the site I am working on, most nodes will be submitted via email. I want them to be able to email videos directly from YouTube (which doesn't allow adding tags) and have them show up as players on the site.
Thanks.

Just fyi, i just discovered this requested feature in emfield module. There is a seperate "Embedded Inline Media" module which is exactly doing what we are looking for in ths issue.
cheers, Ronald

That would be great, do you have a link to the module? I can't find it.
#10
It is part of the emfield module package (link at #8) and it is listed within group "other" at your modules page.
#11
Ahah, cool. Do you know if there needs to be a field on the node for this to work?
#12
The module i'm talking about works as an input filter with just the video url without brackets.
#13
Thanks for the tip, but I'm not seeing this module anywhere on my modules page. I just reinstalled emfield and ran update, but still can't find it. What is the exact name that appears on the modules page?
Update: I found it. It's in the dev release of emfield. I'm trying it out now. Thanks again.
#14
Another update: I can't seem to get the emfield inline filter module to work, but no go. Any tips on how to make it work? I will file an issue over at the emfield page.
