Auto Youtube Link-Converter · **Released**: 03-31-2011

So basically this is a total easy-to-implement plugin, which converts standard youtube links to video-embeds on the fly without urging users to use the video-button because I think it is unnecessary.

On post display, the plugin checks if the post contains at least 1 youtube link in the form of

Code:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=somecode&some=params">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=somecode&some=params</a>

and converts them using the default vB video bbcode parser.

Code can be modified to fit your needs, altough there shouldn't be much to add.
If you're the special performance-freak, I'm curious if you can enhance data/query-performance. So let me know if you do.

INSTALL:

- Download attached XML File and import it as an addon.

Code:

Changes since 1.3:
- Now works properly on iPad

Changes since 1.2:
- Supports mobile devices with fallback-display if browser doesn't support flash/embed codes
- Allows the user to specify the above mentioned replacement code for mobile browsers
- Minor improvements & Fixes

Changes since 1.1:
- Moved regular expression and index position into admincp settings to allow easier changing in the future
- supports new youtube link format: "http://youtu.be/*somevideocode*"

Changes since 1.0: (or: why should I download that mod again?)
- Added Link parsing in post-preview mode and in post reviewbits (the latest posts you see under the new reply form)

Now every post containing youtube-links should display the embedded video instead.
Works with any number of youtube-links and any kind of text surrounding them.

Let me know if you have trouble/questions.

Hi! Is there any way to enable fullscreen?

Does this work with those adding articles in the 4.2.xx Suite?

Works as intended. Thanks a ton

Has anyone else had any issues with users complaining that they are unable to view videos in-line on the site using this mod, yet when they go to the actual YouTube site, they view fine? (see pics)

Also, is there going to be an update to this excellent mod to support API 3.0 from YouTube and also better support the Youtu.be links?

Thanks..

Regards,
Doug

Hi,

Conflicts may come from any conflicting javascript includes, like for example different jqueries or anything else really. Hard to say without js-console output.

Mod upgrade likely won't happen, as I don't have access to/interest in vb at this point.

How can I get this working in the blogs section too?

bosanci28 · #**259** 10-15-2016, 02:06 AM

Thanks.

Since last week all YouTube embeds show up as black boxes on IE. Chrome and Firefox work fine. Does anyone have an idea what's causing this?
