I took a quick look around and I suppose this premade addon might do:
YouTube bbcode:

Just a link:

Wrapped in url bbcode to prevent embedding:

YouTube bbcode:

Wrapped in url bbcode to prevent embedding:

I'm not a big fan of the automatic link functionality though, plus I think a video bbcode with YouTube support would be better (i.e. more universal/extendable). I'll leave this one up for a bit to see how it works out.

It's what Simple Machines expects. It may not be what you or I expect… but I guess it'd be easy enough to change.
I noticed that, if I change the subject line of my post, that subject is displayed at the forum's "last post" area suggesting that it is the thread's title, which it is not. Does it work as expected?

I'll have a go at it if you like Frenzie; it will take a couple of weeks or so since I'm going to Nl this week. I may need to contact Opera if I'm to plagiarise their rules.
That would be great.

I could probably throw together a serviceable (but not exactly good) Quick Quote UserJS as early as this week if you like, but getting it as default functionality will have to wait.
@string I'm not sure. Perhaps I can leave this problem to Macallan.

So if you have a thread you'd really, really like to transfer, all you need to get started is available at these two links:
https://github.com/Frenzie/myopera-backup
http://download.simplemachines.org (there should be some kind of install.sql file in the archive, but their site is down for maintenance atm so I can't check)

Browsers & Technology / Re: Keeping an eye on Opera
My last OPERA experience was v10.63.....I decided to switch to FireFox because I didn't like using menus...I wanted to use buttons...Custom Buttons is a breeze with FireFox (for what I want anyway), & I found customization much more user friendly in FireFox. Extensions were a dime a dozen,,,,Greasemonkey for userscripts gave me even more flexibility, & between the two I was able to find just about everything I could possibly ever want.
Could you tell me more about that? I couldn't figure it out compared to Opera. I'm not interested in messing with XUL, although I might do it as a last resort.
But I've got my Opera customized in just about each and every aspect. How I can attach the same macro to a menu, button, mouse gesture, stack a whole bunch together… I don't think any other browser has that.

tried to hide it behind tinyurl
On that note, this isn't Twitter! There's a limit of many thousands of characters (determined by me; I'll have to give it some thought eventually), but in practice that still means URLs can be as long as you want.

I dabble in making icons myself occasionally, but right now I have neither the time nor the inclination.
If you dabbled, then assumedly you have something ready too. For this particular forum, even an unfinished but presentable work would suffice.
I'm not sure that follows; I don't believe I have making icons as a hobby just because I make one every three years or so.
One question for Frenzie though. While we want new members, is there any problem from your viewpoint in having the number grow quickly (we have until March) during this teething time?Not at all. If it turned out it were too much traffic or some such, surely the sooner we know the better.

- An international aspect with regard to timezones. This probably means at least a couple of people from Europe or Africa and a couple from the Americas. I know there might be some people from around UTC+6 through UTC+11, but that might be harder to achieve. Note that I mean this primarily as a practical matter with regard to potential moderator response times, not as an attempt at cultural diversity.
- Diversity of beliefs. This is not an atheist forum. I'm not sure whether this will have to be defined more precisely, but it means e.g. Belfrager could a candidate if he were interested.
PS This is more for myself but it might be of interest:

I wouldn't bother too much with the captchas, but what any forum needs is quick ways to mass delete messages. Post limits and join limits are good as well.

Anyway like 'Macallan' I switched my e-mail client long ago and never bothered with M2 again. I know some people here really like M2, well good luck to them and don't be too surprised if M2 just vanish someday!I only use M2 for newsfeeds these days; I don't think I've used it for mail since '08-ish. Like I said, there was virtually no visible development there since Opera 7, while Thunderbird kept improving in the meantime. I currently use Icedove (=Thunderbird).

Anyway, e.g. Chuck Norris used to be hidden, but there might be others. See e.g. http://my.opera.com/community/blog/find-the-smilies
Quote
- One of the hidden smilies is a tough guy known for his roundhouse kicks.
- If people are with someone they really like, they tend do ... a bit.
- An expression often said out loud about something really cute.
- Another word for facial hair.
- In a certain mini-game in WarioWare, Inc., players are required to scare people away with this character.
- This smiley is an animated character often seen in the PenguinsPlus group.
Anyway, judging by Tamil's comment, there were 75 visible smilies and 6 hidden ones, which would seem to account for all of our present 81.
As for alternative smiley activators, here's some indicators:

Yes, it did.
@frenzie - Frans, I reported one of your posts to see if the reporting mechanism worked - did the report get through to you?

Unicode doesn't just have regular emoticons, it has all these freaking emojis. Now there's a whole bunch of things I don't have in my fonts.

I gave up on Opera when they dropped support for anything non-x86, without even bothering to whip up something halfway stable as a final release. Especially MacOS X / powerpc support was apparently dropped in the middle of an unannounced beta phase.
They also won't be returning to *BSD.
I think it's just a matter of time they will (also) close the mail-client. I think it's safe to say that people only using that half-baked mail-client because of it's integration with the browser!
I think it had some really neat features for its time, see e.g. Mark Schenk's review. Unfortunately development was going along at a snail's pace from Opera 7 all the way through 11.50. There were some minor changes like newsfeeds, but even so it took about 8 years for newsfeed folders to arrive.
