I get this when posting on forum, just text; no embedded content.

“Embedded media upload permission is required to use [sic] oembed content.”

Shame they can’t spell!

Though this post survived!

@WelshPaul, @Geluk -

It was a request from our legal team to disable Embedded Media while they review the Government’s/Ofcom’s Online Safety Act, which we’ve been made aware impacts the iD Community. Sorry, I do appreciate it’s frustrating, and I'm pushing for restored functionality ASAP!

(The message is generated by Gainsight, our Community Platform Partner, I'll raise the error with them!)

Thanks.

How do I leave a message then, as I don't know what's is causing it?

Is there some special characters I need to leave out?

Yeah normal plain text Matthew, I don’t know how to upload images or attachments on here.

Not done it for 2 days now. Whenever I copied & pasted a long reply.
