YouTube videos in posts

[Richard]

Just thought I'd let everyone know that we (finally) have the ability to embed YouTube videos into forum posts. Simply use the BBCode [ YouTube ]kJNK_5y1Hd4[ / youtube ] where kJNK_5y1Hd4 is the video ID of the video. To find it, go to the URL of the video, and copy the 11 character ID that comes after watch?v= Alternatively use the Quick Access link to the BBCode that appears in the Full View reply / new topic page.

Thanks for that Rich; but is there a maximum or not?

Why doesn't this code work anymore? I can't seem to post videos using the BBcode button or the [ you tube ] codes - but others can...?

Using standard youtube embed code doesn't work either...

Hmm, it didn't work for me that way either but when I typed it the way in my post it seemed to work

yep - seems to need the youtu.be link included contrary to the original post.

This is great, Youtube embedded codes are a good way to strengthen a post, to show some reasoning in a post, or just to share something awesome! Thanks Richard!
