  • I ran into this same issue over the weekend (which is how I found your post). I sent in an email reporting this and requesting support. I did find a work around that you can use too.

    I installed the WP Hide Post plugin from here on the repository. When I create a post that I would normally put into draft more, I just “check” or select all of the hide options on the right side of the screen and then publish the post. I can view the page and work on it like it was in draft mode, but it will not show up any where else on the site. When you are done working on it and want it to be visible on the site, just uncheck all of the hide options and update it.

    Hope this help!

    DKornyukhov, are you saying that the embed shows correctly in the editor, but not when viewing the post as a draft or published? If so, I have the exact same problem. For me, disabling the feedwordpress plugin fixes the situation perfectly. I also don’t show any errors in the console, so perhaps you too simply have a plugin conflict?

    Here’s the thing for me, though: feedwordpress is critical to my website. So is embedly. But they don’t work together. 🙁

    If you don’t need both plugins working on the same page, check out a WONDERFUL plugin called Plugin Organizer.

    https://wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-organizer/

    Among many great things you can do with this plugin, you can selectively turn plugins on and off on a per page/post basis. So, when I encounter plugins that are conflicting, I have the ability to turn one off for that post/page when needed and it will usually solve the issue.

    Also, since WordPress plugins are horrible about loading even when they are not needed, you can globally turn off everything that you don’t need and then turn them on selectively on a per post/page basis. And it will REALLY speed up your site when you get it all set up correctly.

    I don’t have feedwordpress on my site. But once I save a post using Embedly, it forever breaks Embedly displaying correctly on the front end (back end in the editor looks fine). So, that is why I use the WP Hide Post plugin I referenced above. I can create a new page/post, set it to hide every where, save/publish it and then no one sees it while I work on it. Once I am done, the last thing I do is remove all of the options to hide it and hit Update. It is then visibly published on the site.

    Hope this helps.

    Hello,

    Have you had any success with some of the suggestions here, DKornyukhov? If there’s any further information you can give us to help diagnose any potential issues, that’d be great.

    Embedly is using the builtin wordpress oEmbed API fetcher, so if there are any plugins that can create posts but don’t attempt to embed urls (via wp_oembed_get), there’s a potential for conflicts.

    Let me know!

    Hey guys,
    I figured I’m not going to use Embedly for now. It wasn’t that crucial for me anyway. But thanks a lot for all the suggestions, guys! Much appreciated!

    Thanks for the suggestion, meijin2k! Unfortunately, disabling feedwordpress sitewide didn’t fix my problem. Apparently even the existence of the feedwordpress plugin, whether loaded on a page or not, breaks embedly.
