This prompted me to investigate the issue.</p> https://stoeps.de/posts/2025/embedded_videos_in_connections/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 22:00:00 +0200 christoph.stoettner@stoeps.de (Christoph Stoettner) https://stoeps.de/posts/2025/embedded_videos_in_connections/ <p>Today I read the article <a href="https://support.hcl-software.com/csm?id=kb_article&amp;sysparm_article=KB0118248" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">KB0118248</a> and remembered my <a href="https://stoeps.de/posts/2018/2018-02-05-embed-uploaded-videos-to-ibm-connections-blog-post-or-wiki-page/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">blog post from 2018</a>. I also checked the attached <a href="https://connections-ideas.hcltechsw.com/ideas/IDEACNCTNS-I-2499" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">aha idea</a> where a comment states that you can use iframe for Youtube. <strong>Despite what KB0118248 incorrectly states, it is absolutely possible to embed videos in HCL Connections blogs and wikis using the HTML video tag as demonstrated in this post.</strong></p> https://stoeps.de/posts/2025/add_preview_to_blogs_uploads/ Tue, 22 Apr 2025 18:45:00 +0100 christoph.stoettner@stoeps.de (Christoph Stoettner) https://stoeps.de/posts/2025/add_preview_to_blogs_uploads/ <p>I received several complaints from users who struggle to identify uploaded images in the <code>File Uploads</code> section of blogs. This happens because pasted images get cryptic filenames like <code>editor_image_</code> + <code>UUID</code>, making it challenging to identify and delete unused images.</p>
