: How to Post a YouTube Video Here
: admin Mon Dec 10, 2007 - 09:04:08
If you'd like to post a YouTube video here, there's a way to do it so that the video shows right here without visitors having to go to another site to play it.

Here's how:

YouTube videos usually look something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCMaOyeR9hM

In order to post a video on our forums, remove everything through the "v=" part. And put what's left between the following brackets like so.

[youtube]pCMaOyeR9hM[/youtube]

You should then see your video in a player like the following:

Does that work anywhere else, like in an email?

I am sorry but I don't understand your explanation, Admin... ? ? ?

Can you explain how to do this in an other way that I may understand, please?...
Here's what he posted on another page on the forum.  I think these directions there might be a little more clear.
Before you attempt to post one, click "Preview".  You should be able to see if it worked or not... at the top of your page.

I usually open two windows, one with the above page open and the other with the "Post reply" page open, so I can look back and forth to make sure I have it right.  You can PM me the link, and I can help you set it up if you want, then you can just copy and paste.

Thanks for your time.
