Hi,

I have some questions about the YouTube link option. It's possible to display a YouTube-video in your profile with the YouTube link option, BUT:

It doesn't work if I copy a YouTube link from my browser, it only works if I change "https://"; to "http://"; .. This will be annoying for visitors of my website. Is their a way to solve this?

Also I would like to know if I can set a max width to the youtube videos, because if my template is responsive, the video will be too wide.

Thanks in advance!

Strange, I have just tried and works, can you please provide me more details about this (if you fill the form below the reply with your site details we can try to check this).

You can manage this with simple CSS

Hi,
found the problem, we use PHP function called file_get_content (very popular and common php function) to get image from youtube.

On your site this function is not able to download remote files (video image) due to PHP configuration.

To fix this you should change in your php.ini (or from CPANEL) the directive "allow_url_fopen" from "0" to "1".

If you're not familiar with this then you can contact your hosting provider to enable this.
