Yeah, I tried a bunch more that work on other phpBB sites. I have no idea which plugin you use vs. which plugin they use, so it was really just a blind effort. None of them worked, either.

I think the problem here is the way in which Instagram format their URL's. I'm going to disable this until I can figure it out. :(

maybe the original format can be changed to allow https://www in the url?

So you've tried adding www to these codes? Or what?

Code: Select all

[instagram]{SIMPLETEXT1}://instagram.com/p/{IDENTIFIER}/[/instagram]

HTML replacement:

<iframe src="//instagram.com/p/{IDENTIFIER}/embed/" width="612" height="710" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>

I'm not an instagram user, but in case this will eventually work, it's probably good if alternative options are allowed, as in this example above:

Code: Select all

[instagram]9iIqTUouT5[/instagram]
[instagram]9iIqTUouT5/?taken-by=lmashton[/instagram]
[instagram]https://www.instagram.com/p/9iIqTUouT5/?taken-by=lmashton[/instagram]


At the martial arts forum I once co-administered, people messed up youtube embeds all the time. At the time, the only way to make it work was:
[youtube=InsertVideoIDHere]Text of your choice[/youtube] (where of course the ID was the random letters and numbers)

No matter the instructions and added explanations, they added anything but the identifier.
