Bug Report

Current Behavior When I add a Bluesky url, no card (embed) is displayed, just a link to the post, as seen in this screen capture below.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a discussion
2. Paste a Bluesky Skeet url
3. post the discussion
4. See a link instead of the full embedded skeet

Possible solution(s)

Additional Context I tested the S9e Text Formatter library outside of flarum and it works with those bluesky urls.

You can check which version of TextFormatter you have with composer show | grep text-formatter

You can try updating with composer update s9e/text-formatter

I believe some of the latest TextFormatter releases are not compatible with Flarum. If BlueSky is only in one of those newer releases, maybe it's not possible to use it that way. If it's not supported there's still the option to copy the template from the repository, and manually register it using a local extender.

Thanks for the reply! I check the version of text-formatter and indeed, it's an older one 2.14.3(from 2 years back) and latest release of the lib is 2.19.0.

I tried to update it, but I got a ...Nothing to install, update or remove.

I'll try to see if I can figure out how to add it via local extender.

The newer TextFormatter only seems to be supported by Flarum 2.0. Since that one is in beta, I'm unable to use it.

I've unfortunately not been able to use local extensions yet to get BlueSky embeds working... Any progress here by other people?
