I have always appreciated that the site elders are justifiably cautious about golden goosism.

Hey, guys, I noticed this twice today: I had multiple YouTube embed links in a post, I posted, and then everything after that initial YouTube link disappeared from the final post. Just thought you should know if you didn't already.
― Crackers and Snacks (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 17:17 (seven years ago) link
Yep, both problems are related. I'll fix it asap

So the problem I noted two posts back, it looks like it's related to whether you have images turned on or not. With images on, all of the YouTube embeds in a post appear, but with images off, the tail end of the post disappears after the first YouTube link. Hope that's helpful.

I noticed a while back that if a post includes both a youtube embed and a quote box, the quoted text disappears when you turn images off (but regular text is unaffected). I assume this is a related issue.
A funny thing happens when you turn images off...

Fixed! And hopefully tweets should now embed properly too.

Has anyone spotted anything odd with the new mobile CSS? I'm pretty happy with it but there could be corners of the site I don't use that still look a bit odd.
(The space on the left is slightly wider than the space on the right but not enough to be worth updating the CSS for on its own)

can youtube embeds be forced to a smaller size? they break the right margin for me as is
css otherwise great though tyvm. (always thought i wanted an ilx android app but turns out it's simply intolerable not being able to see who bumped a thread)
― r|t|c, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 10:54 (seven years ago) link
No, it's different from the other embeds -- for every posted Tweet you need to make a call to Twitter's API to get a bespoke embed code. So it only takes effect on tweets posted from now on. I could think about a batch historical job, though.
That could be doable, I think. Will take a look.

one thing I like about the way Zing displays boards instead of the real site is leaving out the "Last updated on..." headers before threads older than a day.
― your cognitive privilege (El Tomboto), Thursday, 4 May 2017 18:22 (seven years ago) link
> can youtube embeds be forced to a smaller size?
um, i see what you mean. youtube videos are within an iframe with an explicit width and height. i can force the width to be 100% easily enough (or 90% or whatever) but can't yet find a way of maintaining the aspect ratio. maybe the aspect ratio is fixed anyway? (all the ones i've looked at are width="560" height="315", 16:9, but that doesn't help, i don't think)

Uh, so I just posted to a 77 thread, and now that thread shows up on SNA, but no other threads from 77 are there. Perhaps the other threads have just been inactive for long enough for them to fall off SNA.

when i open a thread that has some images in it, why does the thread open at the images instead of the most recent post? e.g. i open the us politics thread and it keeps opening at the belle and sebastian image w/ the two trump ladies even though there a bunch of posts after that
