Youtube

[geezer]

is it possible to embed a youtube video into a thread using this forum? Someone suggested I use BBcode but I have no idea to use this.

Anyone who can help me will be appreciated

click the BB Code Help button below all the smileys when you post.

they do it all the time on pirahna fury, so it must be possible...

Can you not put the video link into a image tag?

Thanks Sam. Couldn't see anything in that BB help section though which would suit me. Thankyou for the link though!

@ Hoarp. I'll give it a whirl by uploading to photobucket.com instead. You tube doesn't seem to have a extension on it so it won't work like that

When it's uploaded to photobucket i'll let you know




This is the code I used

still i'd rather it play in the thread like youtube does. but this aint so bad for the timebeing

Geezer, what fish are in that tank? Is it a betta, cichlid, and sailfin mollies?

. Strange isn't it! the link I wanted to use originally was this one http/www.youtube.com/watch?v=69fgF_MXM0g .


@ Wendy! There is two nano cichilids but they hide at the bottom/rocks. One Bolivian Ram which keeps appearing, two sailfin mollies (going into 95 gallon soon) and 5 dwarf frogs. The betta seems to enjoy himself in there since the mollies came along strangely enough

that BBCODE instruction thing works. I just did it on my forum...

Clicky

very neat, you just put [youtube]VIDEO_ID[/youtube] in and it puts the vdieo in the post...

It wont work straight away, the forum staff have to go into the admin control pannel and ad in a custom BB tag.

for the admin staff, the details on how to do this is in the instruction page i posted afew posts ago...
