  • YouTube videos now working in the forum

    I've added a small bit of code in here that will now let you insert YouTube videos into your posts.

    You will notice a new button appear above that looks like this - (in the advanced editor while you are typing a post, not in the quick edit box)

    To insert a YouTube video, cut and paste the last bit of the YouTube link into your message, highlight it and then click the button. It will insert tags around it that will make it display in the forum.

    For example, a full YouTube link looks like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snPdEl0Duoo

    You don't need all that stuff at the beginning, just the last bit of text that identifies that particular video, in this case - snPdEl0Duoo

    To do this, you simply paste in:

    snPdEl0Duoo

    Now drag your mouse over it to highlight it, then click the YouTube button.

    It will now have tags wrapped around it like this:

    [youtube]snPdEl0Duoo[/youtube]
    (You can also just type them manually if you want).

    Any valid YouTube value at the end of a YouTube link will display in your message as long as it has the YOUTUBE tags around it.

    Here is an example that I liked:

    [youtube]snPdEl0Duoo[/youtube]

    It's very easy to do.
