Heads Up

The Ute Hub server environment is having an infrastructure upgrade sometime February 6th, 2018 between 12:01 AM to 6 AM MST.  This upgrade will take about 20 minutes, so I’m told. If you hit the site during the upgrade it will appear to be down. Do not fear it is a UFN moment. It’s just an upgrade to make the backbone to the site even better.  🙂

One thing I realized yesterday (Go Birds!) is that if you post a link to a tweet or video from the front page, it shows up as a web address. If you go into the forum and post it, it shows up as an embedded video or tweet. I hope that makes sense.

Let me test your theory.  This is a tweet posted on the home page.

Not only are the Red Rocks ranked #2 in the nation, but also ranked #1 on Floor, #2 on Vault and #3 on Bars!!! #GoUtes pic.twitter.com/N2LNMxZHuh

This is a tweet posted in the forum.

Pleased to announce, Quinn Fabrizio, originally a 2015 Utah football signee, is now an official Ute and enrolled in classes. #UtahNSD18 #goutes pic.twitter.com/YWLokrgJ5L

Yeah I can’t get it to post as a link. Remember just paste the tweet URL on its own line and it should work in either the forum or the home page.

Weird. I just did it again in my post above. I’m on an iPhone using safari. 

I posted the link off the homepage and it came up as a link. I then opened the post, deleted the link and then re-pasted it and it embedded the video.

Get the same thing. Droid with chrome. Have to go in and edit post, delete pasted link, and re-paste for tweets and videos to show.

Maybe it has something to do with how the copy of the tweet url works on mobile.  

[Tony (admin)]

How are you copying the tweet url?  Maybe I’ll have to try safari.

I usually just click the address bar, select all, copy then paste. Or on twitter, I click the copy link command. 

[Tony (admin)]

Hmm. So apparently the “copy link” button on twitter wraps the link in a bunch of html to try and make it pretty I guess.  Try just copying the link from the URL, not the copy link thingy.
