I ADDED SOMETHING! You can now embed tweets! (See the little box next to "video" to use it)

BUT sometimes you have to hit Submit and then Edit/Submit to have it show up OKAY? It looks like it takes a few seconds (or two tries) for the embed to show up OKAY?

I could never figure out how to do that at OTHER BOARDS or if it was even possible.

FYI, I'm doing some behind the scenes web work this week -- I'm transferring my domain name from one provider to the one I use for all my other domains. I'm not sure if this means there might be a temporary interruption in service while it goes down, but if you can't access the site for a day or so this week, that may be why.

I updated the Media Embed Plugin (the extension that lets us hotlink tweets, etc.)

You no longer have to change "X" to "twitter" in links to X posts -- you can just paste the link as-is.

Instagram links work fine as well.

There are now links for Bluesky and Threads included, but for some reason, they aren't working yet. From what I've read, they may just suddenly start working in a day or two, but if not, I'm still looking into solutions...
