Giving  Authors and above the ability to post youtube videos.

Trying to get embeded youtube video working in Joomla 1.5.9 is way too hard. I finaly did it but it took all day perhaps a smarter person could have done it sooner but now it works the way I want.

Step one.

Article Manager –> Parameters –> Filtering options

Filtering groups: Select ‘public Front-end’ and ‘Registered’ . It has to be two groups there is  a bug in Joomla so the setting only works if its two groups.

Filter type: no html –> save

With this  Authors and above can post youtube videos and registered users who can’t post anyway and unregistered users can’t post

Step two:

Extensions –> Plugin Manager -> Editor – TinyMCE 2.0

  • Code Cleanup on Startup: Off
  • Code cleanup on save: always
  • Do not clean HTML entities: No

Use theses. Other settings give you image place holders

Browsing the website there are lots of jobs in Toronto for Drupal developers.

For graphic designers it looks like there is lots of money to be made.
