hi lostnucleus,

To open a link in a new window you either add target="_blank" inside the link, like:

<a href="someURL" target="_blank">some link</a>

or you use javaScript. For that use Google.

YouTube video's don't work out of the box in B2evo.
[url=http://forums.b2evolution.net/search.php]Search the forum[/url] for the solutions.

Good luck

thanks 4 replying , well , adding that code manually takes lot of time, and is it not possible to post you tube videos....??

Did you download the YouTube Plugin? What Version of B2Evo are you using? Do you have a link to your site?

The YouTube Plugin works like a charm - out of the box.

once I get the plugin loaded, how do I install it to the site?

Hi c93,

Apart from the search function, there is also the [url=http://manual.b2evolution.net/Main_Page]ducumentation[/url]. There you find a page on howto install a [url=http://manual.b2evolution.net/Plugin]plugin[/url].

Good luck

how about when you click install it says it can't find the page?

what version of the plugin and b2evo do you have?

Hi c93,

Your oproblem should be solved by now (see PM). Let us know if you have subsequent questions.

Good luck

still looking 4 solution.........i get the You Tube button below text area but it shows nothin when clicked..

version : b2evolution 2.0.1-alpha –

Hi lostnucleus,

The YouTube plugin does not (yet) work on 2.x. What works is the Video Plugin. But I suggest you upgrade to 2.1 first ;)

Good luck

the new video player is really nice. You can see it in action at my site right now.

YOu definitely want to update to 2.1.0 Beta.

Most of our plugins haven't been converted to 2.x yet, we were waiting for the core to stabilise a tad before working our way through them.

¥

does you tube plugin works on 2.1.x

and howz video player differ 4rm youtube plugin ....wd it do the job of putting youtube video on blog ????????

The YouTube plugin does not (yet) work, but the video plugin does.

Good luck

this blog sucks ....is there any tool which can convert my database to word press...??

Youtube + Google plus plus working with 2.0.1 first and also with 2.2.0 video plugin

What's the real problem?

I'm sure there is a Wordpress script for converting the b2 database...
Good luck

I wonder if lostnucleus and c93 are the same person?

Either way: the youtube plugin doesn't work for 2.* installations. Read it, believe it, and go the hell away.

You'll find the same thing everywhere in open-source land: just because it worked back then doesn't mean it'll work now.

You've also been told that the videos plugin (which ships with 2.something) will handle youtube links. So what's the damned problem?

Now pay attention or go away. No one here gets anything for trying to help you, and we all get depressed when idiots refuse to listen then insult us.

Go play with WP you freakin moron.

Lord I hate morons.

putting this thing dnt work at all , it just get displayed as it is ....

ver 2.2 the latest one......
i hv tried all the things as i can....

if any staff member wants the admin pass of my blog to check can ask me i hv no problem in giving it...

@EdB
the link to the plugin you are talking abt cd hv done better...

The current version of the YouTube plugin (2.2.0) now works with b2evolution 2.2.0. Are you using both of those versions? If so, PM me your login info and I'll check it out.

I had a similar problem. You have to go into the Plugins and select "install new", then select the YouTube plugin.

Then a button will appear for the video. The new code is:
[video:youtube:MyVideoID]

Actually, is the code for the built in video plugin. My YouTube plugin still uses [youtube]MyVideoID[/youtube].
