Help Fixing Old YouTube URLs

(Those that became broken after the move from vBulletin to XenForo.)

I found this while browsing XenForo Community, and I thought Jeremy's solution in post #2 would work here.

Mark and Cassie, thoughts?

 

I ran several find & replace commands when we moved to fix outdated bbcode, including YouTube embeds. If you see any that are broken let me know, but I've not encountered any.

 

I had to fix quite a few embeds in my old threads, such as Interesting Video in Discussion.

Take a look in the song thread in The Playground. Plenty of broken embeds there.

 

Just paste the broken code into here and I'll run another find & replace at some point.

 

The code from each post with broken embeds or the bulletin board code?

I assume it would be the latter because the former would just kill me, but figured I'd ask to clarify. :x

 

Just one example of the broken code.

Reading new replies, I noticed Brogan mentions that the search index needs to be rebuilt (which would also fix the important issue of not being able to search stuff from before the XenForo move), but I'm not sure if that's optional or not, and I know you mentioned it's an intense process.

 

@Misty: Did you happen to run a find and replace process during the downtime for this?

 

No. We'll do some find & replace stuff after we rebuild the search index.
