How to Embed Videos in phpbb
 

what gives? I thought this was a natural part of forum scripts but it looks like it isn't. Is there any rick to it?

Anybody knows the heck (or what needs to be changed) in order to be able to embed videos (eg youtube videos) in posts?

Simply enable HTML and add the tags needed into the allowed tags box and you're done!

Just copy & paste the embed code! That's it!

Yep Enable HTML is the Key

I'm usless with this. I'm staring at that admin panel but can't find where to enable html. Any advice?

It's in the general configuration where you settle the PM and avatar sizes and all that stuff. Just scroll down a little bit further and you should see the BB codes boxes. If you see it, you should see the HTML boxes below. There you type in the tags you need to embed YouTube. Make you to allow HTML codes to be used by enabling it on the left.
