wheeledhorseman 579 #1 Posted December 12, 2013 I meant to put up a post about this some weeks back but have finally got round to it. I thought I was going mad and that I'd lost the plot when it came to including a video from Youtube in a post. In the end I discovered that it was due to the fact that I was using the https version of Google which in turn then directs you to https Youtube by default and that the forum software can't (or couldn't at that time) deal with the necessaries if presented with a video url starting with https rather than http. I thought I'd mention it in case it catches others out but perhaps it has now been dealt with - if not it may need seeing to as I understand Google may go over to https only. In my experimenting I've also noticed that when an https Google search links you to an standard http url you randomly get a 'page cannot be displayed' message on occasions which, if you hit the refresh button then mirraculously appears without issue.

AMC RULES 37,211 #2 Posted December 12, 2013 I wonder if this is another example of what it means to be scroogled by Google. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neil 2,410 #3 Posted December 13, 2013 This is odd , i i seem to have a similar problem with (paste), . If i want to copy & paste something it will only allow me to copy but will not allow me to paste within the forum is there a reason for this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
