# WordPress 4.4 Embed Everything

 * I upgrade all my self-hosted sites to WordPress 4.4. However, the Embed Everything
   for embedded WordPress content from one site into another does not work when 
   I embed content from any of my WordPress 4.4 sites but works fine when I embed
   content from other WordPress 4.4 sites.
 * How would I trouble shoot what may be causing the issue?

 * Khurt, could share the link to one of your own posts (i.e., the ones which “don’t
   work”) that you’ve tried embedding?

 * [@tara](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tara/) WordPress 4.4 includes code
   that turns WordPress sites into oEmbed providers.

 * Okay, I’m pretty sure the problem has to do with the first link tag here (I copied
   this from the HTML source of that post):
 *     ```
       <link rel='shortlink' href='//wp.me/pn73N-5bY' />
       <link rel="alternate" type="application/json+oembed" href="//islandinthenet.com/wp-json/oembed/1.0/embed?url=https%3A%2F%2Fislandinthenet.com%2Fquick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015%2F" />
       <link rel="alternate" type="text/xml+oembed" href="//islandinthenet.com/wp-json/oembed/1.0/embed?url=https%3A%2F%2Fislandinthenet.com%2Fquick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015%2F&format=xml" />
       ```
   
 * That link tag should look like this instead:
 *     ```
       <link rel='https://api.w.org/' href='http://islandinthenet.com/wp-json/' />
       ```
   
 * So, the first thing that comes to my mind is the Jetpack plugin (because it has
   a WP.me shortlinks module): do have the latest version of that plugin installed?
   If not, try updating it.
 * If you are already using the latest version, then try deactivating ALL of your
   plugins, to see if the link tag changes after you do that.

 * Hi [@girlieworks](https://wordpress.org/support/users/girlieworks/), I’m running
   the latest and greatest everything. WordPress 4.4 and all plugins — including
   Jetpack — are updated.
 * I disabled plugins — this severely breaks the site since the them itself depends
   on a few plugins — and I can now embed my own content. Now to determine which
   one of the 33 plugin might be the issue.
 * I just hope my readership isn’t seeing this while I trouble shoot.

 * So … I disabled all the plugins and created a test post where I embedded the 
   following link:
 * [https://islandinthenet.com/quick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015/](https://islandinthenet.com/quick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015/)
 * The post worked and the “Embed Everything” worked as expected.
 * I re-enabled each plugin one at a time and the embed continued to work as expected
   using the same link: [https://islandinthenet.com/quick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015/](https://islandinthenet.com/quick-thoughts-on-innovations-of-2015/)
 * All plugins were re-enabled and still everything worked with the test post.
 * However … if I change the the embed link to something, it doesn’t work.
 * It seems the only way to test this is to disable all the plugins, enable them
   one at a time, and test with one link, then change the link and test. Then enable
   another plug and repeat.
 * That could take some time.

 * Eureka. I figured it out. The culprit is the [CloudFlare](https://wordpress.org/plugins/cloudflare/)
   plugin.
 * Everything works with all the other plugins enabled. Enable CloudFlare and the
   embedding stops working.

 * I’m glad to hear you were able to find the culprit! 🙂
