Posting YouTube clips

Postby Josh » May 24th, 2011, 10:53 pm

Hi folks,

If you would like to post a YouTube clip in your message, you need to click the YouTube button that appears below "Subject" when posting a new topic or reply.

This will insert the following:

[YouTube][/YouTube]

Then copy the URL from YouTube, i.e. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3drqJ1bUmEA and put that link:

[YouTube]here[/YouTube]

which will give you this:



Any questions and I'd be happy to explain this in more depth as it's a little confusing.

Good luck!

Hi all,

Also important that when posting YouTube clips to not copy the entire YouTube URL, i.e.

Copy only the red part:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxB-LbcZITU&feature=related

e.g. correct = [YouTube]http;//www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxB-LbcZITU[/YouTube]
incorrect = [YouTube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxB-LbcZITU&feature=related[/YouTube]
