One thing though, you should really let users log in as "guest", and not have to take the moment to sign up.
Title: Re: Remote embedding Metaplace Post by: Trippy on June 30, 2009, 04:03:47 PM Yuck, iframes. Can you make a stripped down version that just requires an object embed a la the YouTube player? Requiring all that cruft to mostly just display some boilerplate HTML links seems excessive. Also, you've done a good job of obfuscating the link to the Wiki page where the embedding instructions are.

Guest support is on the roadmap, but we thought we'd test it this way before opening the floodgates. Title: Re: Remote embedding Metaplace Post by: Raph on June 30, 2009, 09:50:33 PM Oh, the Wiki page also has how to add bbCode for phpBB now. Dunno how different it is for SMF.
