Can you still embed youtube videos on the main forum

10 replies
hey guys, just a quick question.

Can you still embed YouTube videos on the main discussion forum and have the videos still show up?

I've been having trouble with this because every time I try to show a video it just gives me a link.

You know what would be cool and would help the other warriors here that are new:shoot a video, on how to do it and posted in this thread.

It's funny. I've done it before but it doesn't seem to work now. Any help from you guys would surely be appreciated.

Here's an example of what I mean:
FDA Official: "Just Eat A Goddamn Vegetable" - YouTube

thanks

      I know they're totally has to be.
      I tried searching for one and didn't quite find what I was looking for.
      I probably don't have the best searching skills and get impatient quite easily. Hence this thread.

      But, I did figure it out. With the help of the warriors here. The video will be below. Once I get it shot

        Art,

        Did you notice the difference between

        http: // www . youtube . com/watch?v=BOyebcrVWb4

        and

        http: // youtube . com/watch?v=BOyebcrVWb4

        The same problem as when you want to put a clickable link to your website from the Youtube description field.

    Just make sure the video link you post is in the following format:

    http://youtube.com/watch?v={video-id-here}

    And that should do it.

    EDIT: Great, you got it already.

    Actually guys I've just been struggling with this too - until I realised one selection I needed to make.

    Anyway, I've cut a video how to do it (just can't be bothered to uploade to Youtube!):
