Topic: Youtube videos
****Please note that you no longer have to do this as simply putting the Youtube URL will work****
If you are trying to post a link to a Youtube video then you can now embed this in your post.
To do this you need to find the URL of the video you wish you use. You need to then use the Youtube tags as below and put everything AFTER the www.youtube.com.
Here is an example:
[youtube]/watch?v=U-zjnVmuTzs&p=9AFD90276E1D45A7&playnext=1&index=17[/youtube]
Will give you this terrific Satriani video:
Check it out!

Re: Youtube videos
Yep sure:
So in your example above you take this part of the link you have posted:
/watch?v=9cbdNOYR1AQ
and place this in between the Youtube tags like this:
[youtube]/watch?v=9cbdNOYR1AQ[/youtube]
Which then gives you this:

Re: Youtube videos
I think my problem is I don't know where the "youtube tags" are
where are they
are they on the forum
sorry about this, but I think posting the video is what I want to do, not just the link

Re: Youtube videos
Remove the http://www.YouTube.com and leave everything after it and do not have spaces in the closing tags
It will then work
