Youtube - Stupid question

[Matty71]

Hi.

I have a question. I searched the site here for the answer but found none.

How do you post Youtube videos in your post?

I tried many different ways last evening but kept receiving error messages.

Thank you in advance for any help! mile:

copy the sequence of numbers/letters after "watch?v="

then paste it between [YOUTUBE and [/YOUTUBE]

there should be a ] after the first YOUTUBE btw

Tip: whenever you wonder how someone did something then use the QUOTE feature, it should show all the codes used as well as the message (so you could see how the YT was put in, for example).

Granted, it's not perfect...for example, some boards won't show images of a "https" as it does a "http" though I've found by dropping the "s" it shows up just fine. And in any case I'd think it would let you figure it out most of the time. At least it does me, that's how I've learned to do almost everything online, I wonder how someone else did it and use QUOTE to see.

I used to have an explanation of how to post youtube vids as my entire signature. It didn't help much because people kept asking about how to do it anyway.

Luckily Meg and Pix have covered it more succinctly.
