Title: Re: Viewing 3D models on the forum

I've been looking into this more and it looks like the only way to get this feature in would to get the developers of Createaforum to add it in themselves since the admins of individual forums under Createaforum can't add in new BBCode. They have a support forum (http://support.createaforum.com/index.php) with a suggestion category. It looks like that would be the only way to add this feature to the forum. That also means this feature would be added to all forums under Createaforum (assuming they appeal to the request). I fear it may be rejected due to its lack of usability for general forums.

This forum uses phpBB code, so I think this (https://github.com/sketchfab/phpbb-plugin) would have the proper installation instructions.

There is a very known site called Sketchfab (https://sketchfab.com/models/popular), and it has a plugin that will allow us to embed a 3D view of our scenes and animations. I would love to see this plugin implemented into the forum. More info on the plugin and embedding process here. (https://help.sketchfab.com/hc/en-us/articles/202604563-Forum-Plugins)
Please support this so we can get it implemented!
