In our ongoing effort to keep things simple on the Forum, I have added YouTube and Google Video tools for your posting pleasure. You can still add videos using the original method, but for YouTube and Google videos, there’s a quick and easy method, too.
The Easy Way
YouTube Videos
Browse to the YouTube video you want to include in your post and grab the YouTube video id–the string of characters after the “v=” and before the “&” in the URL. In the following URL, the video id is: xM62KcCvwPQ
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xM62KcCvwPQ&feature=aso
Click the YouTube button on the tool bar in the Edit Post editor. Paste the copied video id between the two YouTube tags like this:
[YouTube]xM62KcCvwPQ[/YouTube]
Poof! You have a YouTube video in your post. Click the Preview button to test it.
If you have any tips, comments, or issues, post away.
