Thought it would be best to have a single thread for support on this topic. Basically what this does is when you post a link to a Youtube video for example it automatically embeds the video in your post so you don't have to get an embed code and paste it. I'll keep this first thread updated with a list of supported sites/services and what kind of URLs that are added to the database.

We're using regular expressions to detect what kind of link is posted and I actually have to write a regex code for each link type to be added in order for them to automatically be embedded so just because one kind of Facebook video link is supported maybe another isn't (and if so let me know so I can add it). I won't go into detail too much but will display which ones that are currently supported (remove the space in the example).
