I guess you can’t embed video objects huh

I am trying to setup a buddypress community but the client wants to be able to post videos. Since you can’t directly link a blog to a group (or have a link to your the groups blog on the groups page), I was thinking I’d use bbPress for posting videos and images. …guess not?

there is a plugin that allows you to do this, there are two i can think off

“bbVideos” – allows for people to easily embed videos from common video sharing sites.

“Admins can post anything” – allows for admins to be able to post html

bbPress 1.0 incorporates the shortcode API from WordPress, so most shortcode based video insertion plugins for WordPress will work with only minor modification.

@bzmillerboy – you can’t embed video here. You’re welcome to allow it in your forum, using a plugin, as described.

Thanks everyone…once I get my bbPress up and running in BuddyPress I’ll give the plugins shot.
