Joomla! filtering - embed media problems

Written by Miha

I have encountered a problem when adding embed media (adding a Youtube movie) - when accessing it as manager or administrator HTML was cleaned up although I turned code cleanup off in a plugin manager. When working as super admin everything works fine.

I know there are some extensions out there for this - but why bother with them if you can "upload" movies via TinyMCE editor that is included in default Joomla installation.

The solution to this problem is:

  • configure TinyMCE plugin (you'll find it under extensions / plugin manager / Editor TinyMCE)
    • select extended functionality
    • turn off Code cleanup and set entity encoding to raw
  • go to article manager and select Parameters (you'll have to be logged in as super admin)
    • at the bottom you'll find filtering options
    • notice the filter type!
