XF 1.4 How to replace bbcode and word?

[clubpromos]

Hi,

1. My old VB forums were using [youtube][/youtube] BBcodes and were also allowing users to just paste the Youtube link and the video would be inserted.
What do I need to do to make all these work?

2. I'm struggling with finding how to replace words. These are word I was automatically replacing in both the text and links and I'd like to do the same with Xenforo.

Thanks

Run this in phpMyAdmin:

UPDATE xf_post SET message = REPLACE(message, '[youtube]', '[media=youtube]');
UPDATE xf_post SET message = REPLACE(message, '[/youtube]', '[/media]');

Take a backup first.

Auto parsing of media can be configured in the bb code media site options.

Thank you!
Do you know how to also replace words by any chance? For example on VB I was replacing "example" by "anotherexample".

Thanks

Exactly the same principle.

Just replace the text in the query above.
