Soundcloud link doesn't show up as embedded

Hi All
New to the world of forum creation. I had a look through to see
if there was an option I needed to activate in order to have
posts from users including links to SoundCloud show up as
embedded...
Any ideas?

Post example url.
Not all urls will embed it depends on format.

That url format is not supported as embedding at this time.

Is there a way to at least show a preview of the link as opposed
to just the hyperlink? Some forums I visit will show a graphic
of the SoundCloud link which is aesthetically much nicer than
just a link in the post.

You could use a Image link Like [ URL = Site address][ img ]
your image link [ / img ] [ / url] Remore the spaces between
brackets

There is no way to add custom BB codes, eh?

Not at the moment. Soundcloud is tricky to embed. I can only
emebed if the information is in the url which is the same as the
embed html code if id's are different can't embed it.

Not a problem. My forum is music related and we have members
who post links to their music using the software that the forum
is focussed on. It would be nice from an aesthetic standpoint
to have the links play directly in the forum rather than having
to go to the site.
