How do I post a youtube video?

Mindcrime1204 · 03-31-2010, 08:58 PM

I tried to copy the embed link and pasted it in a reply to a thread, but when i checked it, it was the code and not the video screen. What's the deali-o?

Code:

[ url ]http://someyoutubevideo[ /url ]

Without the spaces.

There are specific tags for embedding Youtube videos into your posts. I'll give you an example - to embed this video I'd take the bolded part of the URL, as seen below...

Code:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EwTZ2xpQwpA

...and stick it between these two tags (minus the underscores):

Code:

[_youtubevid]EwTZ2xpQwpA[/youtubevid_]

and it should embed just fine

You used the image tags around the whole URL, need to use [*youtubevid]CDjKW8EYo7g[/youtubevid], but delete the * symbol.

Division - American metal that doesn't suck. Much. Even on Facebook, and Soundclick might eventually be updated, too.
