Tweet BBCode

Nothing has changed. That's how rich text editor (CKEditor, MS Word, Google Docs, etc.) in general works by default when a formatted text is pasted. Not a browser setting.

Try Paste and Match Style. I think that's the Mac equivalent of Paste as plain text on Windows.

Its just so weird that all of a sudden i have to change. Im on chrome. For some reason i am now coping and pasting tweets on my site as URLs. I never had to copy or paste as plaintext.

It was so nice just copying the tweet url and pasting it in the code. Im trying to figure out how this happened.

How did this happen? I never had this problem before with tweets. Just copied and pasted the link between the twitter code and boom the tweet would show up.

But its copying the url and pasting the url? What changed? Its it a chrome setting? Did twitter change?

Why do you have a paste as plain text option and i dont? Where is that from? What browser? Is it an extension?

Im freaking out because when this happened my forum died. And we just got a bunch of new users. If they cat post tweets they will leave. its a big part of our forum. Most of the users are not technical.

So frustrating.

As I mentioned, you need to paste it as plain text so that it doesn't include the formatting.



That's how rich text editor works (not just CKEditor in vB but also on MS Word). When you copied a formatted text and paste it in a rich text editor, the text formatting will also be pasted.

So what changed? Is it a setting? I never had to do this in the past. Just copied the twitter link and pasted it in the tweet BBc. I dont even have that paste as plain text option. Is that your browser?

I dont understand why its copying tweet adresses as urls now. Im not doing anything different. I click on a tweet. Copy its address like i always have. And paste it in the tweed code. But they are copying as links now?

When you right click and paste the url, paste it as plain text. If you copied the link from a web page and do a regular paste, the format where it's copied from is carried over and pasted to the editor. So make sure when the url is pasted, it doesn't turn into a hyperlink.

Yeah so for some reason twitter links are now getting wrapped with URL bbcode and the tweets are not showing up. You have to go back in and edit out the [URL] code.

The tweet URL should be between (not in tweet=) the opening and closing tweet tags. Check the format in the first post closely.

I actually had one of the yes/no options wrong. Figured it out and it works great now. Thank you.

It shows as [TWEET=https://twitter.com/caplannfl/status/1071804770380406785][/TWEET] and does not show the tweet. What did I do wrong?
