you tube code being stripped out of post on save (4 posts)

    I am doing an embed (you tube) on Wordpress MU using the html editor.

    When I click save the code is stripped and the video does not show.

    Is there a special plug in I need?
    Is there some valid reason html does not remain as it should in wordpress?

    Thanks,
    Linda

    This has been discussed a number of times previously. Here's one of the threads on the topic:

    If you;re interested, you may want to search the forums for 'youtube' for other thread on the topic.

    Here's the plugin we use:

    Hi tdjcbe,

    Thank you ... actually I did see that information a week or so ago while reading the forum. I did not pay much attention to it since I was not having a problem then.

    I had to fresh install because something I installed made my wordpress MU no longer work properly.

    I am trying your suggested plug in since I was suspicious maybe the anarchy one installed before might have been the problem :)

    Again thanks!

    Not a problem. Gotta admit that we're not a big anarchy fan as it gives too many options to endusers but many of the admins here swear by it.

    *shrug* It's a personal choice and depends on your endusers.
