After working with WordPress Mu, I found that I was unable to embed YouTube videos into a post. Instead, WordPress MU would strip my content out without any warning. After surfing around, I found the solution here:
Fix for including YouTube videos in posts in WordPress MU
To make the fix, open wp-includes/kses.php.
Look for:
if (!CUSTOM_TAGS) {
$allowedposttags = array (
and Add:
'embed' => array ( 'style' => array (), 'type' => array (), 'id' => array (), 'height' => array (), 'width' => array (), 'src' => array ()), 'object' => array ( 'height' => array (), 'width' => array ()), 'param' => array ( 'name' => array (), 'value' => array ()),
to allow embedding of videos.
You can do the same for other HTML codes like
