YouTube - Member_Profile

[Skiilz]

Hey guys, I;m willing to add one custom video to the user profile and m trying to so by using the Template Conditionals Plugin.

Here are the steps I did:
- Added one custom profile field called YouTube video (FID8) the user will imput ONLY the Video ID.

Here is my issue: (Template: Member_Profile)
How do I parse the field to make the url show the video?

HTML Code

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

<if $mybb->user['fid8'] != '' then> <div id="YouTube" class="tab_content"> <center><object width="212" height="172"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/$mybb->user['fid8']"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/$mybb->user['fid8']" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="212" height="172"></embed> </object></center> </div> <else> </if>

The http://www.youtube.com/v/$mybb->user['fid8'] will not work.

Thank you.

Try this;

PHP Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

<if $mybb->user['fid8'] != '' then> <div id="YouTube" class="tab_content"> <center><object width="212" height="172"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/$memprofile['fid8']"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/$memprofile['fid8']" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="212" height="172"></embed> </object></center> </div> <else> </if>

I think it is better to sanitise it a bit....

He means it's fine as long as no-one tries to hack you.

How can fix the issue? Please help

Is it not working Skiilz ?

Well, I'm not sure if this is intention, but you're mixing $mybb->user['fid8'] and $userfields['fid8']

Secondly, $userfields['fid8'] is never gone through htmlspecialchars
(and please don't ask what "htmlspecialchars" is - if you care, you can Google it)

It's not intentional. I forgot to change the $mybb->user['fid8'] to $userfields['fid8'].
Here is the code I have on my board...

Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

<if $userfields['fid8'] != '' then> <div id="YouTube" class="tab_content"> <center><object width="480" height="385"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{$userfields['fid8']}"></param> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/{$userfields['fid8']}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed> </object></center> </div> <else> </if>
