I don't see any risks since the movie location is prefixed with a hard coded part. That means you can only load YouTube movies as opposed to other embedded content.
How to safely allow embedded YouTube videos?

Thought I'd share the code I used. I'm new to vB, so I may have done this wrong as I made two BBCode entires -- one for the simple, one for the advanced.
Simple Method:
Code:[youtube]hl2UUunlI2Q[/youtube]
Code:<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="466"> <tr><td style="text-align:center"><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v={param}" target="_blank">YouTube Video</a></strong></td></tr> <tbody><tr><td class="alt1" align="center"><object width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><em><strong>ERROR:</strong> If you can see this, then <a href="http://www.youtube.com/">YouTube</a> is down or you don't have Flash installed.</em></object></td></tr></tbody> </table>
Code:[youtube=hl2UUunlI2Q]Aston Martin Crash[/youtube]
Code:<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="466"> <tr><td style="text-align:center"><strong><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v={option}" target="_blank">"{param}" via YouTube</a></strong></td></tr> <tbody><tr><td class="alt1" align="center"><object width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/{option}"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{option}" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><em><strong>ERROR:</strong> If you can see this, then <a href="http://www.youtube.com/">YouTube</a> is down or you don't have Flash installed.</em></object></td></tr></tbody> </table>

Hi Guys ... this thread got me thinking about embedding googlemaps within threads ....
I have created a map using an awesome site www.quickmaps.com
The site gives me code to include on my site:
Code:<iframe src="[URL]http://www.quikmaps.com/ext/15970?w=779&mh=465&t=1&ln=0&sn=1&zb=0&zs=0&d=1&it=0&icd=0&lat=-33.88543337775272&lng=151.2297248840332&zl=16&mt=0[/URL]" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="781" height="493" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"></iframe>
Many thanks! .... twobobComment

It's the same idea. Just replace the URL with {param} in the replacement code, like so:
Code:<iframe src="{param}" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="781" height="493" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0"></iframe>
[map]http://www.quikmaps.com/ext/15970?w=779&mh=465&t=1&ln=0&sn=1&zb=0&zs=0&d=1&it=0&icd=0&lat=-33.88543337775272&lng=151.2297248840332&zl=16&mt=0[/map]Comment

Thanks! Great info.Comment

That would only work if you allow your users to post straight HTML, which would expose you to users posting Javascript, ActiveX controls, etc. They could use Javascript to rewrite all the links on your page to send traffic to their site, steal user information, etc.Comment

I don't think the users of my big board would do that (it's not a tech savvy board), but I'll keep that in mind for future boards...
Kinda scary!Comment

There is a new addon that builds the embed links for you at vBulletin.org. It doesn't require BBCodes.Translations provided by Google.

You can use the embed code on YouTube's site to make a BB code:
Admin CP -> Custom BB Codes -> Add New BB Code
Title - YouTube
Tag - youtube
Replacement:
Code:<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>
Description - Use the movie code from the YouTube URL in your browser. For example, http://youtube.com/watch?v=JFwCCL0Vh6U
What could I be doing wrong?Comment
