We now have the capability to embed youtube and google videos directly into forum posts.

All you need to do is...
1) Start a new message
2) Paste the link to the video into the message
3) Highlight (select) the link text
4) Select one of the WRAP options (YOUTUBE or GVIDEO) from the editor toolbar.

Thats it! The appropriate tags will be wraped around the link and it should embed into the message.

please report any problems


ADDITIONAL INFO
If you dont see the youtube and google video stuff in the toolbar, here is what to do...

While you are iin the message editing dialog, you must select the advanced editor. There will be a button that says "go advanced". This will bring up the appropriate toolbar.

You can set this permanently by going into your profile (control panel) and do the following..
Select "Edit Option" from the left menu
In the bottom section under miscellaneous, select "Enhanced interface"
Save



Thanks
