Title: Embeded video
Post by: romperwomb on January 28, 2007, 04:56:43 pm

Any chance there could be an option added to embed video into a post?  Seems standard on most forums these days.

Mainly I want to be able to grab the Embed code from YouTube or Google videos (both flash based) and for it to show up in the post.  Possible?

I think it is better to leave it as a link. That way people have a choice of whether they want to see the video or not.

Plus people behind firewalls that don't allow whatever site you're using to pull the video won't see it anyway.  A LOT of people here are usually behind firewalls that disallow places like youtube and google videos.
