How to add youtube videos to your post/thread

[Techno-Geek]

I see someone didn't know how to do it in another thread so i thought i would make a guide to it for everyone

So here goes..

​

Copy the Embed link which I have highlighted

Then go to your post and click the icon I have highlighted in red

Then this text will appear in your post, your cursor should automatically appear in the middle where you need to paste the embedded link you copied.

After that is done, All you need to do is to press...

I hope this helps everyone

You can also just put the code at the end of the youtube url for each video in the [Youtube] tags

Ie

For the following video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcvB3r9i7t0 - you can do:

Jimmy, i am seeing a little box which seems to house the video but is to small to see all of it.

Anyone else see it like this??

[Jimmy_Lemon]

Your way seems to work just as good Proably a bit more code to go wrong with people cutting a pasting.
