Disabling Embedded Video in certain fora...

    Not sure if I should be posting this here, or requesting it directly from admin, but I'm wondering if it is possible to disable youtube links and other embedded video in the Personal Issues/Relationship Issues/Bereavement fora?

    The facility to disable certain tags in certain fora seems to exist already (img tags are disabled in After Hours for example), so perhaps this ould also be applied to the [youtube] tag too? Even adding "youtube" to the filtered words list might achieve this in a roundabout way.

    Embedded video links are forbidden in these fora as per their charters, but we still get quite a few posted by people who haven't read the charter, and think that this clip/song/motivational video might be helpful to the OP. If it were possible, it would be just one less thing to deal with in the fora.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
