Responsify 2.10 has been released and introduces several key improvements:
- Support for Facebook and Instagram iframe embeds: Responsify now natively supports responsive iframe embedding for Facebook and Instagram content.
- Fixes for document display in object tags: An issue with the display of document media, including PDFs, Word, and Excel files, embedded via object tags has been resolved, improving their responsiveness and layout.
- Improved handling of non-16:9 iframes: The update enhances the responsiveness of iframes that don't use a standard 16:9 aspect ratio by supporting aspect ratio values found in embed codes (like Scribd) or by calculating the aspect ratio from the iframe's specified width and height attributes.

This update introduces simplified iframe embedding for Facebook and Instagram posts and videos via pasted URLs, along with new options to disable the JCE Media Field for specific profiles and to apply custom CSS rules for editor content display. Additionally, it resolves issues with copying and pasting table cells between tables and addresses several bugs and issues reported since the last update
Facebook and Instagram Embedding
Simple iframe embedding for a variety of media providers like YouTube, Vimeo, Soundcloud, and Spotify has been available for some time. These media providers use the OEmbed API to provide accurate embed parameters. However, Facebook and Instagram have discontinued access to their embed data via OEmbed, which initially excluded them from iframe embed options in JCE. This update now includes simple URL detection and conversion, allowing seamless embedding of Facebook posts and videos, as well as Instagram posts and reels using iframes. This enhancement simplifies the integration of social media content within articles or custom content.
File Browser Profile Parameter for JCE Media Fields
A new parameter has been added to the File Browser profile settings, allowing administrators to enable or disable the JCE Media Field for specific profiles. When disabled, the JCE Media Field becomes read-only. Additionally, Joomla Media Fields that would normally be converted to use the JCE File Browser, such as those found in the Images and Links tab when creating an article, will not be converted.
Custom CSS Rules for Editor Content
In the Typography tab of the Editor Profiles, a new option has been added to allow the application of custom CSS rules to the editor’s content display. This feature can be particularly useful for overriding template styles that may not be ideal during content editing. For instance, you can increase font sizes or modify spacing for a more user-friendly editing experience without needing to create a separate editor stylesheet.

Responsify is a powerful Joomla plugin designed to ensure that various media elements, including objects, videos, and iframes (such as YouTube and Vimeo embeds), are fully responsive on the front-end of your website.
With its Full Width Display feature, Responsify automatically adjusts media to fit the entire width of the page, providing a seamless viewing experience across all devices. Additionally, the Click to Play option enhances page performance by loading certain media, like iframes, only when the user clicks a placeholder, reducing unnecessary load times and improving user interaction.
In addition, the Click to Play feature assists with GDPR compliance by preventing external media, such as YouTube videos, from automatically loading and executing scripts without user consent. Media content is only activated when visitors manually click to play, giving them control over the data processed by third-party services.
Responsify 2 adds powerful new configuration options for finer control over how media is processed.
- Elements allows you to specify which media elements, such as video, object, embed, and selected iframes, are processed by the plugin.
- The Media Location option lets you choose between local, remote, or both types of media for processing, with remote media including sources like YouTube.
- Iframe Media gives you control over which iframes are processed—whether all, allowed media types, or only specific URLs.
- Use Allowed Iframe Media to automatically responsify common media types such as YouTube, Vimeo, and SoundCloud
- Allowed URLs option lets you define additional URLs for processing or optionally the only URLs to process.
- URL Exclusions provides a way to exclude specific URLs from being processed.
In addition to these new options, a bug in the Click to Play feature has been fixed so all iframe content is only loaded when the placeholder is clicked.
