LittleWaySoul Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Is anyone else having the problem where when you embed a video into a post, it fails and gives you a 404 error? Is this something I'm doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I THINK - I don't know, but I THINK - you have to click on the "Insert other media" button at the bottom right of the text box. That way, the link is pasted in; when you click on it, it takes you to another window where the video is played, but it's not using up Phatmass band width. Give it a try and see if it works.

LittleWaySoul Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Testing Hm, no, that didn't work. the thing is, when I just copy a YouTube URL into the comment box, it automatically embeds in the comment. The problem is that when I hit submit, it gives me a 404 error unless I go back and click the option to only show the link and not the embedded video.

Nihil Obstat Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I seem to be having the same trouble, at least on mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleWaySoul Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 Hm. Let me try on my laptop: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhZ7vETPqbA Yep, 404 error if I don't click "display as link instead." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriela Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I'm having the same problem. It's a 403 error, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
