YouTube tag

phpBB3 has a neat feature where you can define your own tags.

So I can code

Code:

[YouTube]{URL}[/YouTube]

And when the post is submitted that gets rendered

Code:

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="{URL}"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="{URL}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

With the URL in the appropriate places.

Users of the board then use to embed the video they're discussing in the board.

Can we get the custom tags support added to the forumotion control panel?

its doesnt work for me idk why.

i think this (custom bbcode tags) was suggested already - check the suggestions forum here to find the poll. probably this will become a feature of forumotion...

on a sidenote, the youtube tags are already existing. They work with the embed code though...
