YouTube BBC Tag

[Gargoyle]

Subs should look like this according to the mod file

Code Select Expand

array(
'tag' => 'youtube',
'type' => 'unparsed_commas_content',
'test' => '\d+,\d+\]',
'content' => '<object width="$2" height="$3"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/$1" ></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/$1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="$2" height="$3"></embed></object>',
'validate' => create_function('&$tag, &$data, $disabled', '
if (isset($disabled[\'url\']))
$tag[\'content\'] = \'$1\';'),
'disabled_content' => '<a href="$1" target="_blank">$1</a>',
),

Post template like this according to the mod file...

Code Select Expand

'youtube' => array('code' => 'youtube', 'before' => '[youtube=425,350]', 'after' => '[/youtube]', 'description' => $txt['youtube']),

If your code is correct it should work... If it does not at this point I am not sure why. I do not know what changes the 1.1.1 did but I doubt it has much to do with this.

I am running 1.1.1 on one of my sites and the youtube mod works fine.

well, thanks for the suggestions.  my coding matches what you posted but it's still not showing video - even on the default theme.

I HAVE ONLY TESTED THIS ON 1.1 FINAL!! No other version may work!!

It also works on 1.1.1

Or not... I am running 1.1.1 and this is what I get:

"Installations actions for "YouTube BBCode by Yakuza":
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF."

Yep, I'm getting the same error.

It installed, but when I apply it, I get that error, and I'm using the default theme [nofollow].

Thanks in advance.

Did the youtube mod ever work for you ??


Now I am going to attach one for 1.1.1 ---- I HAVE NOT TESTED IT VERY MUCH SO INSTALL AT OWN RISK!! It should work fine though...

no, it never did but i've got the you tube gif showing now and when i preview a post i get a message that says "fetching preview" but still nothing shows up.  so, i don't know what the deal is.

wow - i feel so silly right about now.   the following is from the very first post in this thread and explains the reason i was getting the large white box (and probably the reason anybody else is getting it)...

Link to Mod

This mod adds a bbc tag (with a nice button in post window too) to insert YouTube video in your posts, it's safe and doesn't need you to enable flash bbc on your board.

- Why it's safe to use this bbc?

- Simple: the user cannot enter his own flash file as content, the bbc needs only the video ID and will complete the url itself, entering any type of url will not work.

Syntax: [youtube=width,height]videoID[/youtube]

Example: [youtube=425,350]-sDyVAUb8xE[/youtube]

Demo: http://devel.mangaitalia.it/devsmf/index.php?topic=3.0

Languages supported: English - Italian

instead of pasting all of that <embed>.....<param> coding between the youtube tags, all that needs to be posted is the video ID, i.e. sDyVAUb8xE.

  why didn't someone just tell me that instead of letting me go on for days - LOL.

pfftt no button in the default theme at all.
my luck

Now I am going to attach one for 1.1.1 ---- I HAVE NOT TESTED IT VERY MUCH SO INSTALL AT OWN RISK!! It should work fine though...

The version 0.2 didn't work, it give me an error saying the file is corrupted or wrong smf version!! I use the default theme without any mod.
After that i try the 0.4 and everything works great.

Only the youtube.gif file i had to add manually through the ftp server.

Thnx

can someone do one for rc3 version

[Nuked]

Actually, this mod installs fine if you do a manual install.  I just installed it on my smf 1.1 instance.

Thanks!

[njoker555]

aww manual, if i had time i would, i'll try to do it tomorrow then

[mohoganybrwn]

Wow! Great addition to SMF. Nice work.

[rad1701]

karl - I tried your version (the 26 - youtube 1.2.zip) one but I don't see the little YouTube symbols in the posting area icons.  Any ideas???

[karlbenson]

are you using the default skin?

[rad1701]

No....  I'm using 1.1.1, and a Tiny Portal theme.  Will it only work with the default?  I have functionality of it - just no YouTube icons showing in the post area.  Where does the youtube gif get upoladed to?  What directory?

[rad1701]

Fixed it - just had to put the youtube.gif file also in the right theme under images/bbc

[Vinspire]

So, this mod is SMF 1.1.1 compatible ?

It would appear as if the mod's author is no longer active.  Have you tried my overhaul of the mod?
