This might very well be a dumb question, but how do I embed a video into a post on this forum?

I looked through the FAQ section and couldn't find anything.

I'm sure it's something really, really easy but I don't know what that is.

Thanks guys!

Hey Zachary

Try this (without underscore {_}):

[_url=http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=7xJRQImajjI]A Sample Video[/url]

That gives you:

  I believe you can also just drop the Youtube video link in the post itself without using any bbcode...
  
  Kevin you're great and I love the video but I wish your head would keep still! <poke poke>
  
  Oh also, the video won't show up in preview post mode, but once you submit the post it shows up...

  That's not really me. It's one of those bobbly-head dolls and someone was shaking the building. Probably Godzilla again.

Kevin,

I knew there was a reason why I liked you. :p

I see that I was right.....it is really easy to embed a video.

I think I tried everything but the URL tags....dang it!

BTW- I love the video. I'm actually still using the video traffic strategies you outlined in "recipe for video commercials" and getting fantastic results. That info product is possibly the only one I've bought that actually lives up to the salesletter. Keep up the good work!
- Thanks
