• Is there a way to choose whether or not to have links embedded? Putting map links up (ridewithgps etc.) gives an automatic embed and I can't see a way to turn it off.

  • No, they just embed.

    Same with YouTube, Garmin Connect Routes, Strava pages, etc.

    If we know about the URL, the extra stuff is embedded.

    What I am thinking of though, is limiting this. Instead of embedding everything, only embedding the first link that we know about in a URL.

    So if you have a post with 10 links in it, instead of 10 maps appearing, only 1 map would appear for the first link that we might embed.

    Additionally, if we made this change then the embedded stuff would appear at the end of the post, above the attachment space.

  • ridewithgps.com/routes/5248251

    That's:

    [ridewithgps.com/routes/5248251](http://ridewithgps.com/routes//5248251)

    The extra / in the URL prevents the embedder from triggering, but ridewithgps doesn't care about it.

    Or use an external URL shortening service.
