pasting a media link without doing embedding

[modernNeo]

If I paste a video link on the web-app in rich markdown editor, it refuses to not embed the video. I have to switch back to plain text editor, paste the link and then switch to rich markdown editor

I can't reproduce this. Tested in Firefox too. Do you have more details (like the browser, platform, adblocks...)

[modernNeo]

sure, just go to the standardnotes app. switch to rich markdown editor and then try to paste https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wp0sEXWSMwk without having it embed.

Hello, I would like to not embed a youtube link to, because that's brokes my organisation's note. It is a way to not automatically embed a youtube or any other link ? Thanks !

To paste a YouTube link already on the clipboard without embedding press Ctrl-k to open a dialogue box to "search or paste a link" then Ctrl-v to paste and then Enter.

Is it possible to change that so that all someone needs to do is Ctrl+Shift+V? That is already a well establish way to do `Paste without formatting" and I feel like that is applicable here.

also, that doesn't seem to help.

if I paste a video by doing ctrl+k, it does initially just paste it as a link, but if I go to another note and then go back to that note, the link will become an embed

Yeah, I noticed that a few weeks after I made the comment (sorry!).

The workaround I currently use is to Ctrl+k, paste the youtube link, and delete "https://" from the start. That keeps it from changing to an embed after clicking back to the note.

I too would like the option to turn embedding for youtube off
