    Which, as I explained above, is the exact reason I used the other bbcode as a universal solution. If people would prefer I can change it, but I wanted it to be open for posting from non-US youtube URL's.

    EXACTLY. I posted step by step how to retrieve the proper piece of the URL easily, dont understand how its so hard. Its selecting part of a URL and pasting it.

    Lol, this was too easy. I had to see what everyone was saying was so difficult. I don't see what's difficult or complicating about this. :quoi

    No one said difficult, just that it could be simpler and more intuitive. Not everyone knows alot about computers and coding. I agree it is easy once you know what to do. I for one had no clue until Mikep showed me. 99% of sites out there you can just copy the url or put in the embed code that youtube gives you, bam you have video. Maybe a sticky or announcement should be made so that others or new members know how it is done.
    Hmmm, Whats next?

    This way adds several steps.

    Instead of copy and pasting the url like you would for any other site, you have to click share, copy PART of the link, click youtube, and paste the partial link.


    It would keep people from posting embedded videos all willy nilly due to not knowing how to do it.

    Also keeps spammers from posting videos as easily.

    Valid point, We should have a sticky on how to post embedded videos. On it.

    Essentially, we could vote to add any official phpbb3 mod. http://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/modif … f5a58aa37d

    I was hoping to eventually add two things. The first is the garage app (something we were playing with back when it was still beta) and the second is user-configurable photo galleries tied to their usernames.

    Quick reply, a rep system/i trader, anti double post, donations, would be cool to start. In due time of course.

    Is there an option for, don't know what it's called, but it's a box next to a quote that when clicked directs you back to the original post.


    See the little blue square next to the screen name in the quote?

    Most vbulletin admins just call it "viewpost.gif" in my experience, I don't think it has a formal name.

    Is anyone else having some problems with mobile browsing?

    My only problem so far is when I am writing a post. I can't scroll at all, it just automatically puts the text field in the top left hand corner.
