This code will let you embed YouTube videos in your posts. They won't automatically play until the user hits the play button, so it won't make computers load the page slowly.

The module should go in your global footers.

Please note that the YouTube UBBC is only supported in posts, not PMs.


When posting a video, you put the video ID between the [url= tags. The ID is the part of the URL following v=
