Default New YouTube embed button!

Recently, a member asked me if it was possible to embed videos such as YouTube videos into posts. After some research, I was able to add a new Code link to the current software to make it possible. It isn't completely straightforward but I'm researching easier ways to do this in the meantime.

From now on, if you would like to add a YouTube video to your posts, all you have to do is the following:

1 - When you find the video you'd like from YouTube, copy the video number from the URL. For Example:
If this is the link to the video you want to show
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCOuyu226Jg

2 - Copy the last 11 characters, in this case NCOuyu226Jg

3 - Then when you want to make your post, just click the YouTube button

4 - It will ask you to give it an option for your yt tag. This means to give it a title. E.G. WWSYS - Stripped

5 - Your Link will now look something like this:
[yt ="WWSYS - Stripped"][/yt]

In between the tags, PASTE THE 11 CHARACTER VIDEO CODE

6- Your link should now look something like this:

[yt ="WWSYS - Stripped"]NCOuyu226Jg[/yt]

7 - Then you can submit your post when ready. You're YouTube video is now available for all to see without having to leave the forum!

Please note, the YouTube button is not available in 'Quick Reply' mode but you can type it manually if you wish.

Also, some people on YouTube do not make their videos 'embed' enabled. In these cases, this feature will not work.


This is how the video will look in your post

WWSYS - Stripped
