    Embed external media as Macro

    Extending Umbraco

    Hello people!

    I have been searching this forum high and low for a solution but have come up short, so I'll just ask the question myself :) I'm sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, if so feel free to close this topic.

    I would like to have a macro where I can, with the help of OEmbed, embed videos, sounds or images in the exact same way I can with the Grid Embed Editor.

    Is there a way to use a grid editor as a macro? Or a simple way of "duplicating" that functionality into a macro?

    I could of course create a macro with a simple textstring parameter, but then I wouldn't get the pretty preview in the flyout.

    Thanks in advance for some pointers in the right direction!

    Hi Oscar,

    Maybe you can use my package. This will install a property editor that will allow you to embed video's, etc...like the one in the RTE.

    https://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/oembed-picker-property-editor

    It is also available through nuget.

    Hi!

    Thanks for that, it's exactly what I'm looking for but in the form of a Macro parameter :) Doesn't seem to be possible though, so I'll have to figure something else out. Will definitely use your package though!

    Hi Oscar,

    Nice idea. In a next release of the package it will be possible to use it as marco parameter editor
