  • You have to enclose the YouTube URL in [video][/video] tags. In the post form, clicking the video button adds the tags for you. Also, you have to paste the URL (begins with http:), NOT the entire text you pasted above.

  • I WANT THE VIDEO ITSELF TO SHOW

    NOT THE LINK TO IT

    PUT EM BACK THE WAY THEY WAS


  • Almost, Anthony.

    Take that link and put it between [video][/video] tags and it will display.

    Note that to use the buttons below there has to be an OPENING tag and a CLOSING tag around the thing (text or video link or image link) you want to display.

    Examples:

    Bold

    <strong>[b]bolded words[/b]

    Color

    <span style="color: red">[color=red]red words[/color]

    Size

    <span style="font-size: 13px">[size=3]larger text[/size]

    _________________________________________________________________

    Combinations

    <strong><span style="color: green">[b][color=green]bold green words[/color][/b]

    <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: purple">[size=5][color=purple]larger text[/color][/size]

    _________________________________________________________________

    Video

    [video][/video]

    Note again that all of the above have opening tags before and closing tags after the items being changed.

    ANOTHER WAY TO DO ALL THIS:

    1) Click the effects buttons you want

    2) Type in whatever you want changed

    3) Click the "close" button before posting it and it will automatically insert the closing tags

    So Anthony, you'd just

    - click the "video" button

    - paste in the http://.. video link

    - then click the close button

    - then click to post

    Give that a go and let me know if that explanation helps.

    Best,

    jeffrey

  • Almost, Anthony.

    Here's a guide for the moment on how it currently works. We'll probably need to install another visual editor plugin (admiN = TinyMCE or whatever) and add the video tags paste-in functionality (add object and embed into list of accepted HTML tags) to get things back to how they were in the previous site.

    Examples of how to do things in the meantime, clicking the buttons

    before AND AFTER what you want to modify:

    Bold

    <strong>[b]bolded words[/b]

    Color

    <span style="color: red">[color=red]red words[/color]

    Size

    <span style="font-size: 13px">[size=3]larger text[/size]

    _________________________________________________________________

    Combinations

    <strong><span style="color: green">[b][color=green]bold green words[/color][/b]

    <span style="font-size: 15px"><span style="color: purple">[size=5][color=purple]larger text[/color][/size]

    You mean instead of CHANGE... DON'T CHANGE?

    Sorry Anthony, couldn't resist. I agree with you we should have the old way of doing videos, but unless you want to pay money to hire somebody to fix it... it's going to have to wait until I find time.

  • Alternatively, THE ADMINS ARE TOO DAMN HIGH is available. :mrgreen:
