This app allows you to define your own embed rules by matching URLs with a specific pattern, then replacing them with custom HTML. This gives you full control over how external media or content appears in posts. Additionally, it features built-in support for embedding Bandcamp (tracks & albums), PDF documents, and HTML5 audio/video files.
How It Works
Each rule includes:
A Match pattern (based on a URL structure, using code like {1}, {2} for dynamic parts)
A Replace template (where variables like $1, $2 are inserted into your custom HTML)
When a user pastes a URL that fits your match pattern into the editor, it will be automatically replaced by the specified embed HTML.
📌 Example: Embed Twitch Channel
Match: https://www.twitch.tv/{1}
Replace: <iframe src="https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=$1&parent=yourdomain.com" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" scrolling="no" height="578" width="620"></iframe>
Now when a user this URL to editor https://www.twitch.tv/examplechannel
It will automatically render HTML <iframe src="https://player.twitch.tv/?channel=examplechannel&parent=yourdomain.com" ...></iframe>
⚠️ Note: The pasted URL must include the same dynamic part (e.g. examplechannel) that your embed code expects.
Prebuilt Embed Rules Included
The app comes with ready-to-use rules for:
HTML5 Audio
HTML5 Video
Bandcamp track/album
PDF
