@Rainman this seems to be a known issue with ghostery. Here you can find a few things to try to make embedded tweets work,

The problem seems to be with the abblocker and not the way the forum embeds tweets. Blame shifting is wonderful!

Thanks, Klaus. I deactivated the Twitter block as well as syndication on Ghostery.

@Rainman but does it work?

I think so.
But to be sure, why don't you embed a Tweet in this thread, and I'll give you a direct answer.

[Klaus]

I already did above.

Quick test ...

Does this work? What do you think?

That worked. Let's see if a picture works.

@George-K and @Axtremus

Both work! How did you do that?

Axtremus fixed the spoiler plugin! (which caused the forum to crash today)

[Klaus]

But on the other hand this seems to have killed the Twitter embedding! I'll investigate...

I was just going to comment.

Thanks, Klaus.

As a temporary workaround, I've disabled Twitter embedding such that tweets result in links that can be clicked on.

[taiwan_girl]

Just for my opinion, If it was a choice between one and the other, I would rather be able to see the Twitter than to have the spoiler alert.

[Klaus]

Yes, but it's not so easy. I've already tried to temporarily disable the spoiler support, but the tweets still didn't work. Presumably there is some version conflict caused by recent updates. I'm confident we'll manage to fix this.

[Axtremus]

Folks, I believe the Twitter embedding issue is fixed.

Please "refresh" or "reload" the TNCR page in your browser so it loads all the new code that renders TNCR in your browser, then you should see all the embedded tweets showing up as they used to.

[Klaus]

The only small downside is that we lost the "Link to tweet" stuff below the tweet. The plugin we use now for tweets cannot be customized.

I don't recall if there's a solution to this...if there is, I missed it.

Is there a way to upload a batch of pictures (or link them)?

I've never tried. What happens if you drag&drop a selection of pictures?
