Ok I found this problem, it was modsecurity rules 340147 &

340148 .

This bug relates to the Video plugin which is part of oxwall version 1.6 ,mod_security rules 340147 & 340148 create a 403 error as they see a cross site scripting attempt , when you try to add embeded code mod_security sees an iframe inserted into a text field.

this is not a software or video plugin bug. we cannot guarantee proper functioning of the software while any secure modules are enabled on the server. If you look at our server requirements you'll see that software needs

suPHP off

suApache off

suhosin off

which is why you need to optimize the software or module settings(recommended), if you have those secure modules enabled.

I tought that video plugin is the problem, but now I realized that I can't add any link in the newsfeed.

How do I add links in the newsfeed ?
