To get the code for video, you can go to the video page on youtube.com and find the embed code, copy it and paste it on your forum.

Hi,

What does it show?

Have you enabled your HTML?

1. AP > General > Messages and emails > Allow HTML : YES

2. Profile > Prefrences > Always allow HTML : YES

Hi,

I'm not quite sure what do you want. You want to display a YT video for phpBB2 under chatbox?
Paste the embend code in index_body after this

Code::  {CHATBOX_BOTTOM}

If you want it before chat paste the code before this

Code:: {CHATBOX_BOTTOM}

Save and publish on the green cross Add

If not, please do explain the problem a bit.

If you need a widget of a youtube vid, use this code:

<object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="URL of video Hereversion=3"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="[color=#6600FF]URL of video Here[/colour]version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"></object>

Change the blue bits.

Hi,

Don't delete anything from templates, just add the YT code. I tried it, it works fine.
