I just tired to post a YouTube video URL in a forum post and it was deleted as spam. I post without the URL and it worked fine. Any way to set the forum to allow YouTube URLs?

make sure you go to admins Only(block)=>forum=>setting, setup that forum part first than go to post your youtube video again. it should work.
bye.

Check your Spam-X log. You'll probably find a note stating "Found Spam Post matching Spam Link Verification (SLV)". It seems a lot of spam contains YouTube URLs, and therefore SLV tends to block all posts containing such URLs.
You can add youtube.com to the SLV whitelist if you want to let such posts pass.
