INTERNET MARKETING

So, I'm trying to post a youtube video
on my thread, and all it does is display
the URL. I want it to display the actual
video.

I've done it before, but for whatever reason
can't get it to be done now.

Anyone know how to do this?

Copy url address from top of YouTube page.

Click "insert link" icon and paste address in.

Thanks

You're right. I've just tried it and got the same. But trying another random video, it worked perfectly.

It must be some glitch with that particular video but I've PM'd you a link that works.

Try removing the "s" from https and see if that works.

Thanks for your help guys, but its still not working.

You'd THINK this would be ... should be... a easy thing to do?

Try taking "&feature=youtu.be" off of the end of the link (and possibly the "s" out the beginning as well).

I'm out of ideas after that one, but it's usually one of those two things.

Are you referring to videos in WSO threads or for any thread?

You can use this code... I removed the [/url] to make the code visible in this thread.

[url="YouTube Link/URL"]Title of the Video

Always make sure to use the YouTube url with "watch?=v" to make all your videos viewable in posts.

For WSO posts... Make sure to check the "Automatically embed media" tick box once your WSO thread is already approved.

You can do so by following the steps below:

1. Go to your WSO thread and click Edit.
2. Choose "Go Advance".
3. Scroll at the bottom of your thread until you see the "Additional Options" area.
4. Under the "Miscellaneous Options" you can see the "Automatically embed media" tick box, then click the box.
5. "Save Changes" and your WSO offer is a good to go

Sounds good. I did get a pm showing me the correct link.
Seriously shouldn't be that hard to do!
