Hello guys.

Just a quick question.

I tried to post a youtube video to my WSO just now, but the problem is, it is just showing the link (not the video) It is the direct link.

The video is :
As you can see it just comes up with the stupid name of the video.

As before the whole video was shown, now i get this.

Is this a change that the Warrior forum have made?

I mean i don't think it is, i saw the same thing in another WSO

Any thoughts guys?

Thanks very much!
James.

    James,

    The video is showing in this post as it will in your WSO post.

    When you put a YT video in a post you just copy/paste the url for the video into where you want it on the page just like you did in this post.

    What you perhaps are seeing is that as you preview your post the video doesn't show, only the title.

    It will show on the published post.

      Hi guys thank you for your reply.

      I see what you are saying. But what i really want is the full video showing in my WSO. So my customers can watch it THERE and THEN just like before.

      What i don't want is for them to have to click on the link (as previewed)

      This is just more of a reason for my customers not to watch this video.

      Do you see what i am saying? I know i could do this before, (about 1 month ago)

      I am just not sure why the full video is not displayed.

      Any thoughts?

      Thanks again,
      James.

    Listen, the video IS displaying,both Bill and I told you that.
    Like Bill said,when the WSO goes live,you will see the video,not the link or url.

      Just like this:
      YouTube - YSNIPER.com | Youtube Marketing
      I am asking how to show the FULL video, NOT the top of the video.

      Users have to click the video to view it! This was not the case.

      Like i said, the full video was shown so that people can watch there and then.

      Do understand what i mean now?

      Thanks agian,
      James.

    No, I don't understand.
    To see the video the only thing anyone has to do is click the play arrow in the middle of the video screen. You have always had to do that to play a video on this forum.
    It sounds like you are saying you want it to play automatically so the viewer doesn't have to do anything,but as far as I know there is no way to do that and it has never worked that way on this forum.
    KJ,correct me if I am wrong,but I don't think so.

      Hi.

      No it is not the case where i want the video to play automaticly.

      I mean, al they have to do is click the play button! Not click the TOP of the video then it takes them to the actual youtube page where the video is uploaded.

      What i want is the video to be embeded into my WSO, where my users can just press the play button to view the video there and then.

      Now as you can see, example i showed you, the video did not display, just the top of the video. So why wold that make any difference when coming to post the same link on my WSO.

      See what i mean?

      James.

            Sorry people. My IE browser needs to be updated.

            I have just made a total fool out of myself.

            Sorry to irritate you all!

            Thank you for being helping me,

            Have a nice day,
            James.

    No, we are obviously not seeing the same thing. I see the video you posted,I see the same video of yours that I posted and they both look the same and play the same. They play inside the post and there is no going to youtube to play it.
    Like I said,the video the way you posted it is showing up correct.
    I can't think of any way to explain it any clearer.
    Good luck.
