If there has been a previous release for this kinda thing sorry for the double post :(

If you like this mod, please click install :)

UPDATE IN CODES:
When a user clicks on the hyperlinked name, they will be taken to the page on youtube this was posted on and not a huge enlarged version of the video

Very cool. Installed. Thanks!

Glad you like it ^^

Works a treat!! Cheers.

Of course I have to fix about a 100 vids now using an older code!! LOL

lolz glad you like it

thanx for installing ;)

Nice job-

Is there a way to encode the link where if a user posts embedded link, it will allow that?

Not all users are savvy at pasting. They see a link and paste the url.

They paste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj9KgUtdQVc

Instead of qj9KgUtdQVc

I've been trying to figure out how to use the {option} feature to input the video id (qj9KgUtdQVc) instead of the video name. I've really been struggling with this.

For example; when a user clicks on the youtube BB code button and the dialog box pops up prompting the user for the tag option, I'd like them to be able to simply input the video id (currently {param}) or the entire youtube link (as requested by BoredOutOfMyMin) in the dialog box in order to embed the youtube video.

Similarly to how the 'insert image' button works - click it, add a url, press OK - embedded image.

Can that be done? Cool if it could be.

Works great. Got one for DailyMotion?

By the way, here is a better button that works in your editor. Yours was an icon file that wasn't correctly sized ;)

Thanx :D thread updated ;]

Thats my problem too. It's a shame that it doesn't seem to work as it probably should because this makes for a really nice addition to a vb forum but it would just confuse the hell out of most people :(

well the problem is that the video links on youtube is http://www.youtube.com/v/

and the links displayd on page browsing is http://www.youtube.com/watch&v=

or smtin like that

thats why its kinda almost impossible to do that in a simple bbcode :( sorry guys

No problem, you've done a nice job. Thanks :)

If you like it please remember to click install ;]

thanks. it simply to setup and use ..

If you like it why not take a few seconds to click install? ;]

it doesn't show up on mine? no matter what url I use

what are you putting in? ... you shouldn't be using a URL...

i either put the url to youtube or just the video code at the end of the url and the entire code disappears when I preview it. or the link just shows

Perhaps a screenshot or a live demo link could help ? :D

thanks a lot

I took it out and used another and edited the code some, sorry but it just wasn't working

Thanks anyhow. It works well, just need a little instruction to the members, but they're pretty savvy and catch on quickly.

Clicked installed!

Thanks for the install glad you like it ;)

just so all know the correct ussage of this is

[yt=VIDEO NAME TO BE DISPLAYED]QykRgx[/yt]

You'd have to use an actual plugin to do that rather than custom BBCode.

I hate to link to another thread from this one (especially my own), but I want to answer your question. This will do what you want: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=130868

hi! I've installed this one :)

Actually, when I insert a video I see it in a blue window:
http://immagini.p2pforum.it/out.php/i121196_screen3.JPG

but I would like to see it in a black window:
http://immagini.p2pforum.it/out.php/i121195_screen2.JPG

how can I do it?

They integrated youtube is set to blend in with your forums natural skin. istall a dark skin like dark_vb and it will also be dark. thanks for the install =)

doesnt work for me, it just posts the actual code/url =(

lets say the video you would like to have displayed on your forum is located at

the corect usage of this code would then be

The Strings it pink is the url you use with this BBCODE

The text in red is the self set name given by the user once the option window displays


Is this of any help?

Sounds good.

On Edit.

You mentioned there is a button image. I can't find it.

Its the last attached immage ;)

:o :o


On Edit.

I didn't realize you had to enter the total path to the gif including the URL. I thought it was relative to the forum.

All I get is a blank area where the image of the video should be. When I click on it nothing happens. However the link to show it at You Tube works.

Please make sure you used the [yt] tags correctly when you tried to post the youtube video

I'll take a look at it and see if there is anything I did wrong and get back to you.

Thanks! Install clicked.

One question though...will this affect my bandwidth or does it just work like a hotlink?

it works excactly like a hotlink . please do decide to click install as u are still showing up as uninstalled to me :)
