Ego Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I would change the replacement HTML into: <iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="640" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/$3" frameborder="0"/></iframe> Should have no negative side effects and the HTML5 fallback will work. I think it will only work for new posts since IP.Board converts tags at post time afaik? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mirezzi Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 So, are all these tedious links to fucking ads being embedded by Viglink going to be the norm around here now? What a sad state of affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I typed in samsung galaxy earlier and it links to an amazon ad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 i thought they were a virus, i got my computer savvy friend to get rid of them and he did, no idea how. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blir Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 More than likely he installed AdBlock Plus on your browser. Do you use Firefox or Chrome? I didn't realise what you guys were talking about until I tested WATMM on IE. Ads. Ads everywhere. Very malware looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugene Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 i see no ads whatsoever on neither firefox with adblock nor on IE10 without any addons, clean your internets people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke viia Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 AdBlock is the way to do it. If I run watmm on my iPad, then yeah, the ads are a bit much... I just try to ignore them... Why am I getting a message that watmm needs Adobe Flash Player to be updated? It says it's blocked because it's out of date, and the message pops up every time I load a new page on watmm. Just curious which part of watmm uses flash, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugene Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 yeah this isn't cool. type amazon. see the link? no, not on ie and not on ff, this is some browser addon that does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joyrex Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 So, are all these tedious links to fucking ads being embedded by Viglink going to be the norm around here now? What a sad state of affairs. Just something I'm trying - I've resisted doing so since VigLink came out with them, just to see if they increase revenues any, which so far, there isn't any noticeable difference. I'll go ahead and turn them off since I never really liked them much to begin with. And no, there was no coincidence - VigLink happened to reach out to me about the feature, and I decided to give it a go. If it's as invasive as you say (I see nothing on Chrome with AdBlock installed), then I don't want that gordoing up the forum either. In other good news, the long-awaited patch for the quotes problem is finally out (with many other bugfixes) which I'll be applying today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mirezzi Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Yeah, not so much about being invasive but I keep thinking WATMMers might have linked something cool only to see when hovering that it's actually a link to E-Bay or some other shit.

Joyrex Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 Like I said, the feature has been turned off, so you shouldn't see it anymore - it might take a few refreshes of your browser's cache to clear any script injections the feature used.
