XF 1.4 Don't show youtube video, just the link

[flowerpot132]

So on a thread i want to show a youtube url, so the actual url can be copied and pasted. However after posting the video shows embedded into the post. How do I stop that please?

You can delete the media bb code site entry for YT.

Be aware though that any existing embedded videos using the media=youtube tag will break.

If this is a one-off to show the YouTube URL you still want to display videos the rest of the time) then you can wrap the URL in PLAIN tags like this:

[PLAIN]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbMmsShghT4[/PLAIN]

which will give you this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbMmsShghT4
