New tags! Vine, Twitter, Spoilers, Spotify, etc

I did a Twitter tag in the Trumpism thread just now that at least works fine on my screen.

The tag still works fine I think, but the tweets won't show up if you post mobile links. You have to manually remove the "m." in the beginning in that case. Maybe that's the issue?

I've had a different (but maybe related?) issue in recent weeks where linked content (mainly videos I think) in tweets don't show up on my ipad. The tweet itself shows up fine on the forum but there's no video embedded in it. Instead there's just a line. I don't think I have this issue on my pc, and I haven't upgraded the ipad recently, so I think whatever changed has to be related to either a Twitter upgrade or a forum upgrade. It's not really a big deal though. If I open the link with the twitter app I can still see the video.

I figured it out, Ghostery was blocking twitter.

is instagram available?

Qwiss

Don't think so but if anyone finds a plug in for it post it up and I'll add it.

Does this work

Is it just me or is there something wrong with the twitter plugin? Loads very slowly for a while now, both on mobile and desktop but the latter even worse.

I have this fwiw.

The tweet embeds are implemented client side. Most likely scenario is that Twitter API performance is degrading. They might be scaling back generally, or they might have deprecated that API and reallocated their resources to a new one.

Yeah I've noticed that too.

Same for me, thought it was my browser initially but they work fine on other sites.

Any chance the Twitter plugin could be tweaked? With the Twitter webpage now pointing towards x.com need to manually change each link back to twitter.com

Qwiss

JazzG I knew how to do that on the old site but I'll have to investigate on this one.

Been meaning to check this whole thing about posting x.com links out for a little bit but I was too busy.

I don't really use (or know anything about) PHP or Composer, but I followed some advice from the Flarum guy and did the following:

Reviewed the version required for the underlying Composer package which is s9e/text-formatter and the required commit which belongs to version 2.14.1 of the package
Logged into cPanel via the long ago admin access @Pepe LeFrits gave me
Checked Flarum supports PHP 8+ okay
Changed the forums to run PHP 8.1 because version 8 was the minimum compatible version, and checked the forum had not fallen over
Set up an SSH key so I could log in and fuck around
Ran composer update s9e/text-formatter which provided a text confirmation the correct version was now in place
Ran php flarum cache:clear which blew away the server-side cache of static assets and whatnot

Basically just hacking production (I did try everything bar the PHP version change in a non live version of the forums though), but I think it worked, if you notice anything odd or bad, let me know.

I only use the Twitter app, but at least on there when I copy the link I still get Twitter instead of X so no need to change anything.
