README
Embeds YouTube, Vimeo and TikTok links in Flarum posts.
Flarum's markdown runs on s9e/TextFormatter,
which already bundles the entire s9e MediaEmbed catalog — Flarum just never turns
any of it on, and the long-standing s9e/flarum-ext-mediaembed extension is stuck
on the pre-1.0 core. This extension is a tiny, maintained bridge that enables a
curated set of sites for Flarum 1.8.
- No API keys, no per-request HTTP for the common cases — YouTube/Vimeo/TikTok URLs are parsed by regex into self-contained, responsive iframes.
- Paste a video URL on its own line in a post and it renders as a player.
Supported sites
| Site | Example |
|---|---|
| YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=…, https://youtu.be/…, shorts |
| Vimeo | https://vimeo.com/… |
| TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@user/video/… |
Add more by appending their s9e site id to GRADBA_MEDIA_SITES in extend.php
(the full catalog — Twitch, Dailymotion, Spotify, SoundCloud, X/Twitter, etc. —
is already available; no download needed).
Install
composer require gradba/flarum-media-embed php flarum cache:clear
Then enable Media Embed in Admin → Extensions and recompile assets.
Enabling only affects newly posted or edited content — existing posts keep their already-rendered HTML until they're edited.
Requires
Flarum ^1.8.
