Your going to have to allow the object, embed, etc HTML tags that are part of the YouTube links in your forums config. And even then Sentinel might block your users.

There are some security reasons why you would not want to do that.

jjmusicpro, theoretically. We would never ourselves try it because of the security holes it opens up as Gremmie has said. You won't know until you try...

This reminds me of when I was in college...

In the department lounge I discovered (a week too late), that there was a list of all the Calculus professors along with comments for each. You know,

Listed next to the name of the professor teaching the only class during which I had an open period.....DON'T DO IT !!!!!

Not that it is worth much, but that is my advice.
