Yes, this was a legit issue. I just fixed it.
Will not happen again in other embeds.

So, uhhhm. Heh. I ‘just noticed’ that… *cough …that the show full post button no longer pulls through playable videos from the main post.
Ahem.

It was worth a try.
Apologies to all concerned. 
That’s actually a specific problem caused by adblock – it takes out The Wrong Div on some pages, really mangling the layout. And I just noticed that when a “redesign complaint” was utterly batshit, you’d get to the desription of what was wrong and … it would be that.
You guys have been darlings.

@codinghorror was it something we did wrong? I was wondering if there was a setting somewhere I needed to have changed with the switch in WP templates.
I see what you did there.
nobody’s biting, so I guess they did, too.
still, nice effort : )

Working again.
I thought it was a hint to BBSers. “Go bloody read the main website!”. I’m glad it was just a bug. Now I don’t have to.

no, the joke is it was always broken and complaints fell on deaf ears; he was using this opportunity to try to trick you into fixing it
wait–were you playing along?

Could it hurt to fix it? It used to even bring up what looked like a dedicated Play button that, of course, did nothing at all. But why not make it work?

No not at all this was a change in the HTML skeleton, and the videos not appearing is a Readability algorithm thing.

Did anyone mention that images aren’t showing up in the “show full post” as well? It’s the same thing that was wrong with rss - images that come before the article text don’t appear.

Probably because the featured images are now in their own div. If they can’t be grabbed algorithmically, I can maybe fix it by having the image put in the text’s div as a 0px -sized img. This is a bit kludgy tho.
A bit more complicated, for videos we need to pull both html and synthesize a javascript embedded player, its a ball of nightmare.
