  • How to post embedded YouTube Videos...

    Thanks to the efforts of our super master programmer "Chris" we now have the ability to embed YouTube videos into our posts. To do this you need to sign up for a YouTube account and upload your videos to their site. Or, you can do a search and find a video from someone else's channel.

    Basically all you need to do is copy the video's URL code and paste it into your post. The forum software will now automatically embed the video player into your post. Pretty cool!



    Now, here is an example of how to do it:














    Or, if for some reason the URL code doesn't show up in the upper right window you can also get the code from here:






    Have fun!

      hmmmm. It didn't seem to work Marty. Did you use the URL link right above the Embed link on the YouTube site?

        Ahhh, I see...This particular YouTube member has disabled the external embedding feature. It states in his embedding box that its disabled. Basically this user doesn't want the video placed on anyones website. Try another one!

          Yup, that's what it was. Here's another video that hasn't been disabled.

            Okay, if you see this in any of the videos you cannot embed it into your post. It will just show the link just like in Marty's post above.
