Congolese Music / New Feature: Facebook post embedding
« on: February 29, 2024, 12:55 »
I am glad to report that from now on, Facebook post embedding works. You know Facebook links vary, it may happen some kind of links won't display, but the 100% method is:
- click the the three dots in the upper right corner of the post
- select embed
- click the blue facebook icon on the right below the button: copy code
- the post url will open
- copy the link of the post, insert it here
- delete the "?ref=embed_post" tag from the end of the link

Know it is a bit complicated, but Facebook uses so many type of links that the forum cannot handle all, only the original basic link.

Congolese Music / New security update
« on: February 25, 2024, 11:29 »
Hi everyone!

From today, this is the new address of Congovibes: https://congovibes.com

With this the problem that virus scanners and browsers blocking the site should be gone. Theoretically though, because your browser may need some time to forget the old type of address. So in case you notice any error, browser not loading the forum, error page appearing when browsing the forum, etc. please take a screenshot of the error and report it here. Hopefully it won't be needed though.

Cheers!

I am glad to announce mobile theme is back! It should appear automatically when you visit the phone on mobile devices, if not, as you may know, you need to click the link "Mobile" at the bottom of the page.

Congolese Music / If you get locked out of the forum do this
« on: February 03, 2024, 14:33 »
Recently I added some new necessary security measures to the forum to keep spammers and hackers away. It may result in that some of the members here get locked out. If you cannot access the forum for a longer period of time, and no notification about servicing is presented on the screen, please visit our page on Facebook, and inquire for lifting the false ban on your account. Hopefully noone will fall into this situation, but in case yes, just do as mentioned.

This is our Facebook page:

How To Play It / How to Play Kin É Bougé solo (Makaba Version)

I am glad to announce a feature that may have been long awaited: from now on if you insert Instagram or Facebook video links in your posts, they will display as videos after submitting the post. The function works for these sites as well: Tiktok, Vimeo, Dailymotion, Soundcloud, Spotify and of course as always: Youtube.

Some glitches may happen, this feature is still under development. If you notice an error let me know.

One known glitch is that if you post multiple Facebook videos in the same post, it may happen some won't appear. You need to insert those in the next post then.

If all goes well, soon, inserting Facebook Posts will also be available, I am still working on it.

Cheers!
