    YouTube links

    I've tried all sorts of permutations of YouTube scripts to try and embed a video, but no luck.

    I've done a search of 'youtube' for any threads/posts which might enlighten me.

    Scanned through the FAQs.......

    Can't find anything on it!???????

    Anyone?

    When you make a post, in the panels above the text area there is an icon which looks like a piece of film, next to the image icon and below the smiley - click on that and paste the Youtube address in the box and hit OK.

    Otherwise, you can simply type the following:

    HTML Code:
    [video]paste the youtube url[/video]

    Which will give you:

    HTML Code:
    [video=youtube;fRj34o4hN4I]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRj34o4hN4I[/video]
    and that looks like this:

    Thanks for the responses!

    But - I see no buttons at all! (Using MacBook)

    Weird!

    I have the following permissions:

    BB code is On
    Smilies are On
    [IMG] code is On
    [VIDEO] code is On
    HTML code is Off

    You can't post a video in all sub-forums.

    Where are you trying to post?

    In the George & Dragon.......

    I'm pretty sure I have never seen any video-link buttons in any subforum, though.

    Under General Settings/Miscellaneous Options/Message Editor Interface do you have 'Enhanced Interface' selected?

    And - that's the solution!!!

    I must admit - I did wonder why the forum seemed so 'plain' - seemingly without the ability to add an emoticon to 'style' the words.

    Thanks for the help!
