    Since starting my nodebb forum I had many attempts at installing a player to show youtube inline rather than redirecting to youtube page.
    it would have been great if there was one listed in the searchable plugins but as there wasnt, I found one on github
    ns-embed
    I installed it from CLI, but it doesn’t do anything.
    Does anyone know why that might be?
    Im curious if this site has embedded video, so trying

    Edit: it works, which plugin is used?

  • @phenomlab yes, youtube links still not showing inline
    Where do I find that rules page to accept?

    @eveh It is in fact nodebb-plugin-ns-embed. If you install this, out of the box, it should work - or you can try the below

    Does this not work for you ?

    @phenomlab
    i did

    npm install nodebb-plugin-ns-embed
    

    in the terminal
    Nothing happened (after rebuid and restart of forum)
    The box you show above, where should I have seen that?

    I never saw anything giving me the option to use default rules

    @eveh After you install any plugin, it has to be activated. Check /admin/extend/plugins#deactive, activate it, then rebuild and restart.

    Is this from the terminal. If I go to nodebb directory there is no admin directory below that?
    If you mean go on the forum admin to Extend>plugins, that NS player is not in the list still

    Does it appear under the “inactive” tab ?

    @cagatay You should ask in the NodeBB forums. Perhaps reference this post https://discuss.flarum.org/d/23066-who-read

    @eveh Welcome board The code you are referring to is custom written as no such functionality exists under NodeBB. However, adding the functionality is relatively trivial. Below are the required steps Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-header Add the below code to your header, and save once completed <ol id="mainbanner" class="breadcrumb"><li id="addtext">Your Title Goes Here</li></ol> Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-js and add the below code, then save $(document).ready(function() { $(window).on('action:ajaxify.end', function(data) { // Initialise mainbanner ID, but hide it from view $('#mainbanner').hide(); var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname === "/") { $("#addtext").text("Your Title"); $('#mainbanner').show(); } else {} // If we want to add a title to a sub page, uncomment the below and adjust accordingly //if (pathname === "/yourpath") { //$("#addtext").text("Your Title"); //$('#mainbanner').show(); //} }); }); Navigate to /admin/appearance/customise#custom-css and add the below CSS block .breadcrumb { right: 0; margin-right: auto; text-align: center; background: #0086c4; color: #ffffff; width: 100vw; position: relative; margin-left: -50vw; left: 50%; top: 50px; position: fixed; z-index: 1020; } Note, that you will need to adjust your CSS code to suit your own site / requirements.
