Why not enable? the possibility to embedding a video.

Like this:

I think they are. Just not in this section. My memory is kind of 50/50 on if I saw embeded youtube on this forum, and I'm kind of leaning towards yes.

Whenever someone posts an embed video, I have to edit it and place the link there instead of it. I don't know why, but I know embed videos don't work too well here, especially for those who didn't register. So I've been instructed to edit all embed videos.

Actually the problem is the reverse of that. You have to be logged out to see the embeds (in some cases). Before a certain date, the "allow html" option for users was disabled by default to prevent malicious presentation usages. At some point or another, the option was re-enabled by someone and, because of this, there is a split where a large majority of the users will see raw html being output while the other half will see the actual embed being used.

We're on a side-hacked custom phpbb2 (very old) as it is, but I'll see if I can pull into the user tables and unify the settings with a query.

Edit : Done.
