Okay, for some reason it’s not loading in my forum from this browser. If I check from another browser it does though. But it’s working here just fine. Strange…

Thanks.

Right, no jetpack. I just cleared cache & cookies and now it shows up. I don’t get it, but glad it worked… :)

Brandons idea worked for me yesterday:

Change the CSS to this.

.spPostContent iframe {
    max-width: 100%;
} With no entry for height so it will auto adjust. Then check and see if needs any tweaks from there.
 
 
Glad I found this thread. Vids were taking up whole width of forum post.
Changed mine slightly to 75 percent. Works a treat.

Good news. It used to be so easy when WordPress had a setting for the size in their admin. Then someone at WP decided that they didn’t need that any more and that they could work out the width at runtime and make it fit. Ha! Well – you see the result!
