As you see user don't have to use any bb tags for it to work - just paste link to post - that's it.

Thanks to TrekkerOfFiles for code deleting http://youtube.com url - I added deleting it with www. to this and it is perfect now.

It will not work very good if you have wysiwyg edit mode enabled (it breaks the link if you edit it) Using standard editor is recommended.

Mod instruction:

Updated deleting http://*youtube.com 08-04-2007:

Atached zipped file cause this forum was messing up the code of modification.
It goes to /includes/ dir.

If you have other version of vb than 3.6.5 I recommend you to find jill edited code in my file and copy paste it to your file. It will work on 3.6.4 also.

If anyone can help with making it better please do

Dailymotion.com
veoh.com
1dawg.com
stage6.divx.com (might be trickyer, but the extreamly high quality videos are definately worth it)

Thank you

yes it can but theres a problem if you edit your post it will re-do the changes. you need to make it make a unique change that it will check for on edits.

remember the people that are at this site are mostly dense and do not know how to code... So just make it as easy as possible for them.

I dont know how plugins work in vb yet.
If i will find out i will do it :P

does tis mod wk fine frens ?

[heavy1]

it is not possible to do as plugin - as plugin hook is before checking if html is allowed.
if you have html disabled in posts it will change html youtube code to normal text.

i added request for hook - if they will add it in next version then ill make plugin for it.

works great on vBulletin 3.7.2... only thing is when people go to edit their posts, it does not show the link anymore. Other than that, everything works perfect!!
