    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 ?

    @kadir-ay-0 marking as resolved based on https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17109/manual-build-a-night-mode-for-harmony/5 Please do not raise requests in two places - here and the NodeBB forums. All this does is create unnecessary load for both parties.

    @Roki-Antic Welcome! This site isn’t running Persona, but Harmony - a very heavily customised version at that. Do you have a URL where your site is currently located that is publicly accessible? Feel free to PM this info if you do not want to disclose here. Happy to help with any customisation needs.

    @phenomlab said in nodebb dropdown menu: @kurulumu-net You set it like the below example taken from this site [image: aae36790-3257-4bb2-ad5a-0d744309876a-image.png] Which presents this [image: 77f47260-2941-4afe-9614-8e17dcfc8c19-image.png] Very interesting… I actually thought this wasn’t possible, as I remember it being asked in the NodeBB forum. Is this something new that’s been implemented? I’ll 100% be doing that when I’m on the laptop over the weekend.
