How do I embed a video here

[seeker630]

I copied the 'embed HTML' from a Youtube video but when I pasted it into a post, it didn't 'translate' - just showed as <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/s0fhHLliKJI?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

when you post you have to insert in in the add video line. it's a photo of the film strip next to the insert image box

Don't use the "embed" link.

 

I've had problems with the toolbar button not working anyway so don't worry if you don't have it. Just get the URL to the youtube video and wrap it with the VIDEO tag. In the following example, swap SQUARE BRACKETS for the curly brackets I"ve used for display:

 

{VIDEO}

{/VIDEO}

 

When you change the curly brackets to square brackets, that translates as:

its sits above the dialog box

Thanks, Joseph & deej.

 

I don't have the toolbar, but the tagging worked.

You can turn on the toolbar in your user control panel. But as I said, I've had problems with the video button so usually just use the tag.

Thanks for the tip. Took me a minute to find it under Settings, but I've enabled it now. (But I'll keep your caveat in mind!)
