Embed flickr or pinterest into forum like Youtube or Vimeo?

[Morne]

Hi all

Is it possible to attach/embed a flickr or pinterest image in a post on this forum in the same way that a youtube or vimeo gets auto embedded into a post?

[Morne]

...or at least attach it as a "preview" like a link does when you post it in facebook, twitter or google+

I will ask our forum admin.

Well, Ivan said that it should not be too hard, but I don't know when he'll get to it.

OK Thanks.
Maybe also see if he is open to the idea of changing his name to Vlado. Because apparently that "Vlado" guy is an excellent programmer
I still think he is more than 1 person

Hi Morne,

Flickr bbcode has been added. Check out the "Advanced reply" for the button. Here is a demo:

How does the following mod work for you?

Do you want to pin vbulletin posts/youtube/images to your pinterest account or do you want to post your pinterests to our forum?

Greetings,

I want to post my pinterest and flickr to this forum. The flickr slideshow thing you posted is great, but not what I had in mind. Thanks anyways

I did however find the BBCode to my specific images on flickr and if I use that instead, it does seem to work. I'll take a look around pinterest, maybe there's ways to share via BBCode there also...

I don't see BBCode on pinterest (I just very quickly looked so may have missed it)

But anyways, what I had in mind was to just post the full URL of a flickr page, and that automatically gets formatted and displays the preview of that page with a text description and thumbnail image. Just like when you post that same full url to FaceBook or Google+
In that same manner I want to be able to add things to my posts if possible.

For now however the BBCode thing seems a good alternative

Thanks anyways Ivan for your hard work
