An option has been added to select how scraping is performed; It has four options: auto (default), native cURL calls, XenForo's client (Guzzle), or disabled. The default value is fine for the overwhelming majority of users so you don't have to care about it unless you use a special configuration for your network, in which case you should select the default XenForo client. Disabling scraping may prevent some content from being embedded.
The current default is to use native cURL calls because...
This adds support for the new spotify.link short links as well as internationalized URLs.
- You can now share Reddit URLs while being tracked. 🕵
- Praise Spez.
- (actually the tracking ID gets lost in the shuffle when the URL is resolved so it'll act like a regular URL)
This is a minor improvement to the lazy loader that only concerns dynamically-sized embeds such as tweets or Reddit posts.
The way dynamically-sized embeds work is that the content provider loads the embedded content then notifies the host page of the size it should be displayed as. This add-on usually acts as a middleman and caches this value for later viewings to reduce/eliminate Cumulative Layout Shift. Some content providers (most notably, 𝕏)...
Facebook is being wishy-washy about reels so it's possible they won't work at times. Probably growing pains that'll disappear once the product matures.
This update contains small modifications to the lazy loader that shouldn't have any noticeable effect. You can keep reading if you're interested in the details.
This update makes use of contemporary JavaScript features to replace boilerplate code with native JavaScript features such as destructuring assignment and the spread syntax. It also adds some small efficiency improvements related to dynamically-sized embeds such as tweets. I do not expect those changes to be noticeable or produce...
Fixed a bug introduced in 2.12.6 that prevents embeds from loading if the theme does not have a sticky header. If you have installed 2.12.6 and one of your theme does not have a sticky header, you'll want to upgrade to this version.
Updated:
- Facebook: minor style change. A white background has been added to fix the issue with Facebook's transparent/unreadable posts on dark styles.
- IMDb: it looks like they might be phasing out their embedded player. It's still working for now.
- Podbean: misc updated to keep up with their markup.
- Misc coding changes in the lazy loader. No functional change intended nor expected.
Removed:
- NBC Sports: their video section is dead.
- Stitcher: they were...
Also, the 𝕏's and TikTok's oEmbed endpoints have been updated.
As of January 1st, 2024, Amazon has discontinued their Product Link widget. That's the little snippet that shows the product with its name and its current price, which this add-on used. There is no replacement planned and therefore Amazon will be removed from this add-on at some point in the future. I will publish the cutoff date beforehand, with more time to react than Amazon gave their own associates.
For now, I have replaced all Amazon embeds with a text link so that you don't end up...
