A mini video...
« on: November 18, 2007, 03:11:36 pm »
Hiya, I was just wondering, is there anyway that we could use a video form youtube or something to have at the main page of our forums? Say like in the Newsbox, near the signature etc

you can do it in your header footer or news like this:

Code: [Select]
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ATBl4qH9I54&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ATBl4qH9I54&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
Just grab the embed code from YouTube .. it'll give you that code above with the video you want in it.

change width and height if needbe

that wont work in your sig or posts though..  you could try LLs guide for that  (it works in posts.  I dont know that it would in a sig) 

Make sure you  do this so it will work in a post:   Admin > Features and Options > Posts and Topics
Put checkmark for embed flash into posts
