Censoring on old posts

[m1ne]

I'm trying to replace all instances of [video=youtube] with [media=youtube], same applies for [/video] and [/media].
The word censor only applies to new posts, any way around this?

That will do perfect, thanks.

I'm unsure how to change these ones,

[align=left] to [LEFT] (same for center and right)
[video=youtube] to [/media=youtube]

any help?

See this post for the video tag:

These instructions almost exactly fit your situation. But if it doesn't work then I need a real example of a [video] tag in an imported post. Then I can make replacements for you.

See this post for the align tags:

Couldn't get the video tag to work, here it is,

[video=youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IakDItZ7f7Q&feature=related[/video]

I managed it, kind of. Now all links are like this,

[media=youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGD1sEM0pNo[/media]

I believe only the video ID should be there.

Use this:

Quick Find: [media=youtube

Regular Expression: #\[media=youtube\].+watch\?v=([^\[]+)\[/media\]#siU

Replacement String: [media=youtube]\1[/media]
