I am not sure if this is the correct area to post these questions. If its in the wrong area my apologies .

i have been running my site on Raven Nuke 2.30.02 and the phpbb forum is pretty standard on it.
I have done few mods to the forum and i would like it to be more userfriendly and informative.
first question is , how can i enable my members to be able to post u tube videos and the second question is about who is online part of the main forum page.
i would love to have it like its on [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

where its got informations like Top Posting members and Visitors of the day etc

what are the mods i need to do inorder to get the features mentioned above?
thank you for reading and any help is highly appreciated.
cheers
Very Happy

For the youtube stuff I would look into using the Advanced BBCode Mod. [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]
The original link in the first post doesn't work. Look for a link by KGuske at the top of the second page for a download.

I'm still trying to think of the mod that shows the visitors like that at the bottom.

Agreed. That mod should do the trick. You may have some issues with the allowable HTML - if so, check the $allowable_html array in rnconfig.

Hi kguske and palbin.

I notice when I post some Youtuve videos on my site(I have the youtube video mod installed)is says embedding video is unable and you should watch on youtube pages.. Is it possible to solve this problem. I went to youtube and I saw a private option. Is there any trick to bypass this issue?

I think that is a setting controlled by the person posting the video to youtube that disallows embedding the video.

Probably not. Youtube make the feed unavailable.
