This change disables multimedia embedding:
- In comments and comments replies.
- In new submissions.
- In comment & submission preview
And it's all toggle-able via an envvar, except for the JS bits,
but I linked those to the github issue, so should be easy to find
in the future.
The way it works is:
- removes markdown image/video syntax,
eg. `` into ``
- changes link text into anchors, eg.
`https://example.org/someimage.jpg` into
`[https://example.org/someimage.jpg](https://example.org/someimage.jpg)`
- removes html img/video/audio tags, eg.
`<img href="https://example.org/someimage.jpg" />` into ``
- when embedding gifs via the giphy modal in "new submission", it will
insert only an anchor to the gif
- when attaching an image, it will upload the image, then add only an
anchor to the post/comment body
I tested this manually, but not sure if I got all the test cases. What I
checked was:
- create comment w/ image/video/audio media using markdown -> success
- create comment reply w/ image/video/audio media using markdown ->
success
- create comment w/ link to img/imgur/youtube/audio -> success
- create comment w/ attachment -> success
- create comment reply w/ attachment -> success
- create comment w/ img/video tag -> success
- create comment reply w/ image/video tag -> success
- create post submission w/ image/video/media using markdown -> success
- create post submission w/ link to img/imgur/youtube/audio -> success
- create post submission w/ attachment -> success
- create post submission w/ giphy gif -> success
Also, updated the formatting page.
