If you have version 3 or higher of phpbb,
you can add your own BBCode buttons.
Log in to your Administrative Control Panel (ACP) and click on the Posting tab on the top menu.
then Add a new BBCode button.
Enter the following in the "BBCode usage" box:
and in the "HTML replacement" box:
Code: Select all
<iframe width="640" height="360" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/{SIMPLETEXT}" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
optional: in the “Help line text” box:
Code: Select all
Insert YouTube Video ID – Example: [youtube]zBhD00BP0[/youtube]
check "Display on posting page".
Submit
This should work.
I will try too add screen-shots later
