Default How to Imbed A YouTube Video In This Thread?

Okay, it's late (and I've had a bit of Shiraz), but
I can't figure out how to imbed a YouTube video
into a thread here in the WF?

If I just past the YouTube URL, all I get is the
video title, but not the video itself?

Help!


Brian

Hey Brian. Is the "auto-embed media" option checked in your settings? It should be checked.

Well I was going to help you out but since HTML is disabled in the forum here I'm not sure how you do it. I also couldn't get the [video] [/video] to work so I have no clue? I can't find any other information here in the forum either.

I read about a [Youtube] BB code, but I'm guessing
this forum doesn't have it?

I know it's possible to post a YouTube video here,
cuz I see 'em all the time!

Hey Brian. Are you trying to view the "should be" embeded video on preview mode? It won't show on preview mode, sadly. You'll have to publish the post/thread to make it work.

Testing...

That was exactly my problem, since it wouldn't show on preview, I just assumed I wasn't doing it properly when I was trying to show how to do it. Good luck Brian, I guess now we know! Happy YouTubing...

If a forum has custom BB code enabled, like:
Code:
[youtube]YouTube ID[/youtube]
You can use this way too.
Admin has of course have to add that.
