Hi. I want to report a recent issue. Embedded Google Sheets worked well until recently, but now they have stopped working. This affected some of my popular threads, like these two:

As far as I know, Xenforo, the forum software we are using now, does not support embedding Google Sheets by default. This feature was added using an add-on software. To embed a Google Sheet, you would type the key from the sheet's URL within GS tags. Then the add-on would convert that into an iframe URL. The URL would contain a link that starts with "spreadsheets.google.com...". However, a few years ago Google changed their embed links to the "docs.google.com/spreadsheets..." format. The old format was still supported after the change but recently they ended the support. Now the embed codes that contain the "spreadsheets.google.com..." link format don't work anymore.
A possible solution to this problem would be to modify the current add-on so it generates "docs.google.com/spreadsheets..." type links for the GS tags as well. Another solution would be to switch to another add-on. I think this might work: s9e Media BBCodes pack
Embedding Google Sheets was a nice feature we had. I hope we can restore that feature. Thanks.
