Embedding utube videos and using SSIs Can't Post

Hello, I was trying to embed a utube video in an article, however every time I paste the code provided by utube, AM removes a portion of it so it doesn't work. How can I do this?

Also, a few days ago I tried adding an exec cgi on an article but it never worked, although my pages are SHTML. When I created a page on my server to see if the code was Ok it worked, but not when pasted on AM!

Please help!

Thx.

Hi svsanchez,

Thanks for the post!

When you added both the you tube code and the exec cgi, had you pasted these into the Article Manager WYSIWYG? If so what's probably happening is that the XSS filter is stripping out the code. Article Manager has a built in security feature that by default will not allow you to enter certain scripts and code into the WYSIWYG editor. :)

To remove this security simply login to your server and go to the /exec/ directory, inside this directory find and open the config.ini file. Around line 14 of this file you'll find the following text:

enable_xss_filter = 1

*note: The config.ini file houses your program configuration settings before editing this file it's a good idea to create a back-up copy.

Change the "1" to a "0" then save your changes. You'll should now be able to add youtube code through the WYSIWYG editor. :)

Give this a try svsanchez and if you have any other questions please feel free to ask!
