Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

lol ah well, ty ;)

..found a slight problem with the one already created

"#\[youtube\]http://www.youtube.com/watch\?v=(.*?)\[/youtube\]#s"

would mean the user has to have visited via www. mine offers that optionally. Hmm, will try to think of something original then :P

Among many. tongue

My mod works, but I haven't gone to much effort to make it go beyond that.

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

Does the youtube mod make the forum load any slower?
I mean...it's not the same if you had just a link posted than if you had an embeded video. Or is it?

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

well if you do it that way it'll be a pain for your users when there are such easy alternatives. to be honest 2 lines of code is going to have a tiny effect and if your forum is popular enough/uses a lot of youtube videos you'll save some space - but again, tiny amounts..

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

Hmm..So is that "use it", or "not use it"? "Makes it load slower" or "not"? smile

Makes it load slower but use it; it'll be too small to notice. While I can't deny it does make it load slower, I can assure you won't notice a difference unless you have some very, very, VERY accurate timing methods tongue. It's just not worth fussing/worrying about. Try it and I'll bet you don't notice a thing.

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

I do not understand. There is written:

##   Affected files:  include/parser.php
##                    edit.php

But changes which is made are only in parser.php...

Sometimes the readme files have some mistakes, or are not updated after many changes. Just follow the steps, it's a pretty easy mod smile.

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

I installed this mod before, and it worked just fine when I had the puntoolbar 1.4.
Then, I updated to puntoolbar to 1.5, and all youtube links became broken ( [youtube]video's url[/youtube])
I tried to reinstall the youtube mod, but I couldn't find this line in parser/php:

'<span class="bbu">$1</span>',

Any ideas?
Thank you.

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

Sorry mate, I've not used PunBB for more than an hour in total and i've not coded in it since i posted this mod so not quite sure about the puntoolbar stuff.. just to clarify, why are you looking for 

'<span class="bbu">$1</span>',

when my mod says look for 

<span style="color: $1">$2</span>

??

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0

Well well, it seems that I mixed up two mods, so when I wanted to fix that, I just couldn't.
But I still can not find your line in my parser. This is odd, because all the videos in my forum now gave places to aweful links.

Re: YouTube BB Mod 1.0.0
