    you need the full link to the video if you are going to post it in the forum
    as a URL, those links are just to Youtubes main page.

    If you want to imbed the video so it shows up in the post
    select Go Advanced and then select the YouTube Icon up top
    next to the quote, pictures, URL buttons.

    This will put the [ youtube ] [ /youtube] prompts in the post

    Past the URL and then delete the link info up to the video number.

    the video number is the last part of the url and is an odd number/letter sequence.

    example here is the url to a video

    h ttp ://www. youtube. com/ watch?v = zZlUoIm0oEg (I put in spaces)
    the video ID is the bolded part (its not normally bold but I did it so your old fart
    greybeard eyes could see it LOL)

    Now copy just that id zZlUoIm0oEg after the = sign

    Now Go Advanced, Select Youtube

    [YOUTUBE ] zZlUoIm0oEg [ / YOUTUBE] (spaces added)

    and you get this

    [YOUTUBE]zZlUoIm0oEg[/YOUTUBE]

    So easy an old fart greybeard can do it... :roflmao:

    See the link in your post as a url, find the video name/ID = gkccqolaVGg

    now instead of using the globe URL link button use the Youtube
    button you see after clicking the Go Advanced Button below the quick reply.

    The youtube Button won't show up unless you click the Go Advanced

    This is what it looks like [​IMG]

    then press the youtube button you will see

    [youtube ] [ / youtube]

    paste gkccqolaVGg between them and voila

    [youtube]gkccqolaVGg[/youtube]
