Youtube code updated again!

[Nicklfire]

Hey guys and gals,

just thought i'd let you know the youtube function is back up and working again, it's ANOTHER way now..

There are some reasons i had to do this:

The FIRST way i had it with the [ yt ] tags.. is that when you edited your post, your videos disappeared... we lived with that for a long time.

then just a few weeks ago i added a NEW youtube embedded player but for some reason it was not displaying ALL videos.. only select few..

I finally installed a new one.. and it works similar to the first way we did it.

How to embed YOUTUBE Videos:

1) press the little youtube icon

2) it will display the tags [youtube ] [/youtube ]

3) put the ID of the youtube video between the youtube tags, DO NOT put the full URL of the youtube video.


Example:

Sorry for the changes, there are not really any good youtube mods for vbulletin..hopefully this one works great and we stay with this one.

ou_czUfSf6w worked for me, that's the ID , your missing the / on the last youtube tag.... [ /youtube] (no space)

i know what you mean, i think step by step instructions should be posted ... you have to click go advanced for the youtube thing to show up ... hope that helps ...

[Nicklfire]

the youtube icon WAS there.. does not seem to be anymore, i'll see what's wrong.. you can instead press where it says "wrap youtube tags around selected text"
