WahooSteeler Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 How do you embed a video from YouTube or similar on here? :dunno: :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I've been told that it's simply not possible. phpbb doesn't support it yet. Maybe with the next update though. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Interesting. I'll let our techie know about that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 I should have clarified I wasn't sure if that was the right term. Pete you said it doesn't work but I see video clips within a thread all the time here? :dunno: Are they ALL not from YouTube but from some other type of format? This is where my computer skillz just get overwhelmed. :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 My computer skills were overwhelmed long ago. Send a PM to Qui Gon-Jinn as he's the unofficial official techie in the club. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLHTAZ Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I have asked him long ago about it. He posted in the "problems & ideas" forum that he was working on it, but then all of his troubles started with the gout and I haven't really heard much from him since. phpbb does support it as our webmaster on the site I Admin has installed it for us there.

gogmorgo Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Just copy the url of a youtube video and paste it into the reply box. Should do the above. Your browser may try to paste the url in as a link, and if it does, just select the address in the reply box and hit the "unlink" button (looks like a breaking link in a chain, between the "link" and "image" buttons in the bottom row) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not working for me - I tried using the "Link" and "Image" options as well as just pasting the URL into the body of the message, like so: . What am I doing wrong? Using the full editor? . edit: well, it just worked here, but it didn't work a minute ago when I tried to edit a post - what gives? . second edit ; I think I figured it out - the editor doesn't like the stupid periods it makes me add just to get line spacing between paragraphs (for that matter, if I don't first type a period and then back up and start typing to the left of it, I don't even get spaces between WORDS, no matter how many times I press the spacebar). . It's working now - thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
