Description

If a user wants to make the image the dominant media, but embed an additional element (such as a SoundCloud file), the user is not able to do so. When you copy and paste the embed link into the text box, it immediately disappears. I found a workaround which involves pasting the embed link into where you'd add a hyperlink and manually editing the embed link in the text box until it matches the original one, but this is not efficient for the user.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the StoryMapJS editor by making an image the dominant media and pasting a SoundCloud embed link into the text box. Trace where the pasted embed is removed, and consider the issue done when additional media remains in the text box without requiring the hyperlink workaround.
