    If it's YouTube, all you need to do is copy and paste the "Embed" code into your WP posts using the HTML option.

    However, not all YouTube videos have the embed code, as the people posting them can choose to disable the feature.

    All the best,
    Michael

    I'm still a youtube newbie more or less.
    When you paste it into the post and the reader clicks play...does it just play inside the post or take them off to you tube?
    (i know here in wf it just plays..didn't know if WP was different?)

    Hi Andie,

    On my blog, Rock and Roll Lyrics Videos Reviews Songs More I use the HTML embed code, and the videos are all playable within the blog.

    I can also change the size and border color if I want.

    Rock on!
    Michael

    I suggest using one of those Youtube / WP plugins.

      I strongly recommend Smart YouTube plugin. All you have to is paste the URL from YT to the post and there it is, in your post.
