Tried embedding a YouTube video tonight but wasn't able to do so using the code highlighted on the pepper post. As I look below this text edit box under Options, I see (sans brackets for posting purposes):
BBCode is ON
img is ON
flash is OFF
url is ON
Smiles are ON
I couldn't find the option on the control panel to turn it on...are flash videos an admin function only for the time being?

Re: Flash videos
There's a bit of a trick to it... I've detailed it in a post in the free-for-all forum.

Re: Flash videos
Thanks, Grant - I used that as a reference, but in my post window there is no flash button. The only buttons I've got are bold, italic, underline, quote, code, list, list=, *, Img, URL, and Font size.

Re: Flash videos
Well, that's just messed up.... try clearing your cache. Here's what it should look like:
If that fails, try copying and pasting the code and doing it manually:
Sorry it's not working for you. Anyone else having the issue of not seeing the flash button when they create new posts?
