[GUIDE] YouTube Video on Profile Page
« on: November 12, 2007, 10:02:42 pm »
Forum Url: http://animedohyou.smfforfree4.com
The following code is used with the Custom Profile Fields (accessed from Features and Options). It will allow your members to place a YouTube video directly on their profile page.

Make sure the 'Parse BBC' is UNchecked.

Text to display before field (BBC is ok if enabled above)
Code: [Select]
<object width="300" height="300"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/
Text to display after field (BBC is ok if enabled above)
Code: [Select]
" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="300" height="300"></embed></object> *Make sure there is no space before the first ' " ' sign, but that there is a space between it and ' type.... '.

All the member will need to do, is place all the text following the ' = ' sign in the video url, into the text field on their Forum Profile Information page, and click save.

This code can be modified to adjust the width and height of the player to better suit your needs, but remember to change them both in the 'before' AND 'after' codes.

ENJOY!  :)

Any assistance?

I copied and pasted the codes up there. I made sure to uncheck ParseBBC and made sure they are both in the right position.

Yes but what did you put in the text box?

Did you put the entire URL or just the part after the = sign?

Everything after the "="

The text box is the personal text right?

I think you have to include the = .. could be wrong though. Try it that way if you're still having problems let me know.
