Hi all,

I have searched high & low for an answer to this question so posting this thread is all I can think of.

Can anyone tell me how I embed a youtube video into a post on the Warrior Forum please?

    Simply copy the URL in the address bar of the YT video and paste it into your post where you want it.

      No, that just parses it as a link. I have tried that and using the embed code. There must be some bb code that people are using or something.

        I've spent the last few mintues trying to figure it out and from memory it has something to do with
        Code:
        [youtube]
        but I cant get it to work for some reason.

    PHP Code:
    [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=]Title of Video[/url] 
    It's not php code but just needed to show you how it looks without it actually showing a video.
    Replace the link with your youtube video link and change 'Title of Video' to whatever you want the title to show above the video.

    That will insert a video that looks like this...
