XF 1.3 BB Code help

[RyanC]

So I just migrated from VB to Xenforo and I'm now dealing with some legacy issues. One of those is the BBcode I used for Youtube embeds on VB. When using VB, the user would use this code to embed a youtube video:

[YT]ESOj56fWB8Q[/YT]

Where ESOj56fWB8Q = ID of the video on Youtube.

Is there a way I can make these old legacy embeds work on my new Xenforo installation using custom BB codes?

Thanks so much!

Take a backup first.

UPDATE xf_post SET message = REPLACE(message,'[YT]','[MEDIA=youtube]');

UPDATE xf_post SET message = REPLACE(message,'[/YT]','[/MEDIA]');

So, I did this... And it didn't work.... posts still display in this format:

[yt]WGK6AQAI8AE[/yt]

Could I have missed something? Is it case sensitive?

Under "Performance" in options, disable "Cache BB Code output" and retest. If that works, reenable the option.

You sir are a scholar and a gentleman... I assume it will recache after a while and start working... It did work when I disabled cache.

Once you reenable it, it will recache as posts are processed on the front end.

Personally I would just leave the cache disabled.
I didn't see any difference with it enabled.

Xenforo rules simply cuz support is so damned good... Seriously.
