    I am talking about embedding it in a post in here at VBF. I think, here the forum, won't allow iframes. Possibly to prevent misusing it by users.

    But what I am looking for is, whether there is a BBcode(added by Admin) that allows insertion of Youtube videolink.

    I thought that link dealt with that? Maybe Spetnik will be kind enough to post how he put the video in his sig.

    Out of curiosity, I just used the Inspect Element on the video link, that Spetnik had posted.

    And found that, it's manual override.

    Code:
    [URL="http://link_to_youtube_video"][IMG]http://link_to_image[/IMG][/URL]
    Hence, RESOLVED !

    Correct - his is an image with a link.

    We haven't allowed embedding YouTube videos to this point by the community due to the security risks involved. After we migrate the site, you can ask about this again, and we'll consider it.

    ok

    You could consider allowing the BBcode to ChitChat forum in the future. I mean, that's the only place that it would be used frequently.

    We will have to evaluate the security risk to determine if it remains......

    This is just a heads up.
