So did you use the text mask specified in the guide?
You say you think it's wrong, yet you don't actually post what you've put there. Smart.
So, what is your text mask filter set to?
What's your display format set to?
The text mask filter is working fine but not in similar threads.
The text mask is the same " ^(?

[a-zA-Z0-9_\-+]{8,16})$|http\://(?:[a-z]{1,4}\.)?youtube\.com/watch\?v=([a-zA-Z0-9_\-+]{8,16})) "
It´s not working in similar thread because is displaying all the URL of the video not the ID like other places
for example {$GLOBALS['threadfields'][vidid]} this is fine because is displaying just the ID of the video and is more simple to take the image of the video, but in similar thread it´s not working because is displaying all the URL :/
I don´t know why, I guess because something is blocking the text mask (?) or just doesn´t put the text mask in the query (?)
if this is resolved this will help the others

dispformat {VALUE$1}{VALUE$2}
Textmask:
Code:
^(?:([a-zA-Z0-9_\-+]{8,16})$|http\://(?:[a-z]{1,4}\.)?youtube\.com/watch\?v=([a-zA-Z0-9_\-+]{8,16}))

{$GLOBALS['threadfields'][vidid]} = Yes, this displays only the ID of the video
{$GLOBALS['similar_thread'][vidid]} = No, this doesn´t display the ID, this display all the URL, the text mask doesn´t work here :/
Thank you.
I changed
my previous post - haven't tested, but see if it works for you.
My bad, I've changed it again.
Could you please try it?
I actually tried it but it looks like I forgot a semicolon when I posted that.
Should be fixed.
