After over 13 years and experience with all versions of Ning, i too become often reminded that are more things to learn about this platform. Here are 2 things I learned just today while building out my community's annual event, International Surveyors Week 2019.
Secret Thing I learned #1: How to create buttons which allow members to follow groups with a click
add =join to the end of any Group URL when you share it.
Secret Thing I learned #2: How to make your embedded videos NOT autoplay
your normal embed code for any video uploaded to ning looks like this
<video
autoplay

<source src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1036825496?profile=default" type="video/mp4">
Sorry, your browser doesn’t support HTML5 videos. <a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/1036825496?profile=default">Download it.</a>
</video>
remove the word autoplay to stop the video from playing when page loads.
Contact me or ask below if you need help. If it helped you solve a problem, say so.. this community needs reviving

Hi JF, You can add a little code to remove the AutoPlay for videos so you don't have to edit it out manually. Here is how
<script>
x$(document).ready(function() {
x$('video').removeAttr("autoplay");
});
</script>
awesome... that does the trick!
Nice!
