I've been trying to post a youtube video in a thread, and whatever I do, the youtube tag isn't working.
Is the tag simple not working working, or am I doing something horrifically wrong, and not realizing it? Help! :vanora_cry:
Forums Help & Support Posting youtube videos?
@onsenmark: I'm positive we don't have a video code for forums. You can only add a youtube video on your profile.
Maybe our dev
@vii: has some input or more knowledge than me though.

If you need assistance or just want to chat, you may contact me anytime by ping or PM.
Fozzy is correct, we currently do not have a YouTube or Media BBCode for the forums. However, that, and other BBCodes, should be relatively easy to implement once I've gotten some other things out of the way. c;
Oh, okay. I was wondering why I couldn't get anything to work... :vanora_sweat:
@onsenmark: Good news! I've added a YouTube bbcode to embed videos! 8D

Obviously without the stars.
Have at it! ^-^

@Vii: it's doing something, but it's also giving me an error. I must be doing something wrong.

@onsenmark: Are you copying the "embed" link from the "embed" code? It's worked multiple times for me with no errors but I still could have messed something up.

@Vii: Let me try... I know posting just the URL leaves a blank space where a video should be...
...aaaaaaaand no. Posting the embed code leaves a "Not Acceptable!" message. :vanora_huff:

Since I just got it to work you need use the url found in the embed code. It looks like this: https://www.youtube.com/embed/cxYRK_WRutU
@onsenmark: Not the full embed code, just the link where is says src="" within the embed code.

@onsenmark: Success! Glad it's working! ^-^ It should scale on mobile as well.
Since this issue has been dealt with, I'm going to lock the thread ~
