On my initial test I was able to embed a video in a blogpost using <iframe> fine.
eg I added this in html view: <p>testing time</p> <p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fHCOJqdV8xI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0"></iframe></p> <p>another test</p> and switching back to wysiwyg view showed me the video. I also tried with embedded object code: <p>testing time</p> <p><object width="560" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/fHCOJqdV8xI?hl=en_US&version=3" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fHCOJqdV8xI?hl=en_US&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" /></object></p> <p>another test</p> and again switching back to wysiwyg view showed me the video. I wonder if tinymce is better at handling the embedded video code now? Anyway - it doesn't seem t to be a problem anymore ** Changed in: mahara Status: Triaged => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

WordPress solves that problem by putting a generic placeholder there that just says that an object was embedded. That way it is possible to continue writing the blog post and knowing that the video is there.
