            Are you having a problem adding the new bbcode, or using it in a post?

                You need to create the bbcode first, using Jake's instructions in the link in post #2. Once you've finished that correctly, you'll be able to post a youtube link.

                  this is what I got exactly like this

                  replacement box:

                  <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>


                  ____________________________

                  example box:

                  [youtube]O9akWi8qddw[/youtube]

                  ___________________________

                  discription box:

                  Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.



                  when I save it I do see the vid in the "replacement box" in the BB code manager

                    The description field should show...

                    Use the movie code from the YouTube URL in your browser. For example, http://youtube.com/watch?v=JFwCCL0Vh6U

                    ... so other people know how to use it.

                    When you make a post, add you using the example field code exactly like you posted?

                        Don't put the whole link in the tags of youtube. Just put the end bit which is the video id

                        See what Lats has done. Put in the red text.
