It's been a recent issue as of late for me. I'm not on mobile, but if I try to post a YT link in a thread, it just pastes the link, and not the embed frame. Mods have been having to come in and re-edit my posts to get the embed. Can someone look into this please and thanks?

I'm not sure if embed works in Support Forum, but here's a sample. As of this post, it simply posts the link to the YT video, and not the embed.

I've avoided using https links, since before my links mysteriously started shitting the bed, they posted fine, and I knew that https wouldn't post correctly. This the same link posted , no https, not copying the bold. I just took the separated link you had, pasted, and re-added the dots.

Are you adding in some code before you C&P the link? Like are you adding [ url= ] before copying the link in?

Because all I did was copy and paste the link with no previous modification.

No, not at all, but when I go to edit mode to check my link that the [url = ] code was automatically added to the link for whatever reason. It was after my user title changed that my links started to go wrong I think.

And for the record, the test video I picked was random
