So like, not sure if this is possible, but wouldn't it be a bit easier and more intuitive to just copy/paste the entire youtube address in the tags, rather than just the last unique code?

*bump*


Since I have a feeling it will be overshadowed by the thread above it in the coming days and weeks.

It would also allow you to take advantage of this nifty little feature.

Bumping for Steel's sake, as the other thread is resolved. ^^

I'm pretty sure Khuffie found the IPB code, not made it. None of the other admins would have any idea how to edit an existing code, if it can even be done.


So... no. And not really worth the effort.

[Nevermind]

But possibly worth the effort.


Steel, your IPB quest starts now.

[Steel Samurai]

I might have a look when I get home. It kinda pisses me off, actually. Having to cut out the last numbers, that is.

[Steel Samurai]

Err. That was easy?

Second hit.

[Selena]

I'll let Khuffie handle it. If he wants to, anyway. Assuming he deems it necessary - I mean, highlighting the end of a url isn't exactly as painstaking as you make it sound. XD I'd rather not mess with the modding section myself for fear of blowing something up.





That risk is high enough with Khuffie.

[Nevermind]

Let me mess with it. I promise I'll take full responsibility for the devastation of these forums.

[Selena]

You're under enough suspicion as it is!

[Nevermind]

Well at least it will be for actually doing something!

[Steel Samurai]

The main problem is more the fact that you can't always just select the end of a youtube URL, since there may be any number of code after it. However, one click and you can select the URL from the "links" section on the page, then copy paste. Yes, it's incredibly minor, but it would be appreciated.

[Nevermind]

The code after it will always be conditions. Just remove everything from the & onwards.

[Steel Samurai]

I know, but it's annoying to do so.

[Nevermind]

This is not a technical problem. This is a behavioural problem. We need to fix this.

[Stalfos]

...I am so conflicted.

[Mystic Kitsune]

Don't you guys just use the "Embed" code rather than manually cutting out the link?

[Steel Samurai]

That . . . doesn't work, does it?

*tests*

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.c...></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.c...cY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

No, apparently not.

Oh, you mean without tags, cause within tags it does...without having to cut anything out ^^'

:O it does work!

[Mystic Kitsune]

Yeah, of course XD I assumed everyone was doing this the whole time o_o

[Twinrova]

Apparently not. XD I never even thought to try that before now, damn.

Kitsune! Teach me mooore!

[Mystic Kitsune]

Yeah, you think the words "embed" would be self explanatory. XD

And that's a lesson in itself. ^^

[Twinrova]

Well it was all HTML-like! You can't use HTML on LA! XD


...Or <i>can</i> you?

[Edit] Well, poop.

ATTENTION:

XD.

Thank you.

[Edit] Well, poop.

Guess not. XD But at least the Youtube thing is resolved, I hope. ^^

[Nevermind]

But not Steel's laziness.

[Stalfos]

Laz...

I admire you. >_> I fear for you, but I admire you nonetheless.

[Twinrova]

Crack that whip, Laz.
