When you embed a vid link, the editor prompts you with "http://" in the URL box.   If users paste their link in the URL - the "http://"remains somewhere in the video URL, which source mode will show.  Unless they highlight and overwrite.  However the link works as is.  Anybody explain this please?

Thought it might be my board, but can reproduce here:



Not a huge issue, but bugs me nonetheless.

cheers...

Hi,

yeah, maybe they should change:

value="http://"

with:

placeholder="http://"

Thanks @NoRules. Your post led me to this thread, with more instruction for old dogs like me:

Made the change in my test environment, and looks good.  Will check a little more, than implement on our live board.

While I made that change, I also changed the order of videos presented so Youtube, the most common one members use on my site, is at the top of the list.
