for the time being you can make it work by typing this:

[youtube] youtube id [slashyoutube]

Where is says "slash" in green use a regular slash sign to close the tag: / (If I didn't do it this way to demonstrate it would jsut show a broken link)

For the Counting Crows video above the URL for the video is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG8veGmU2r8

Highlight and paste the red part between the [youtube] tags and it should work...

Perfectly :D

I'm looking for where to turn the button on but it might not be accessible in this theme (the skin for the forum) without modifying the code....

Thank goodness no.....

I mean, it is probably working, but about half the YouTube stuff ends up blocked at work and the other half works fine. Rick - no workie....

That's a shame. The dumb grin on his face is perfect in the freeze-frame.
