    Right next to the Image or Link button, right above the post, there used to be an "Insert Video" button, right? Think we could get that back, please?

    All they'd have to do was program a button to put [video] tags around a link, so it shouldn't be much of a problem. Though I'm not sure if that's an option/hack on IPB.

    Can't you just type:

    <div class='codetop'>CODE</div><div class='codemain'>[video][/video]</div>

    Around the URL?

    Yeah, but I'm keeping new users in mind with this one.

    People new to the site, or new to the whole message board thing may not know what to do when inserting youtube videos into a post. I just figure it'd be easier, quicker, and more helpful to have a video button.
