How to easily embed a Youtube video into your message text in 6 easy steps
Permalink  
 


Embedding a cool online catfight video into your message text is easier here than any other forum. Here's how to do it:

1) Visit Youtube or any other video hosting website.
2) Choose the video you want. Then copy & paste the url from your address bar of this video that you want to embed in your post.
3) Start a new topic on this forum
4) Click on the small film icon in the text editor (next to the small 'spool' icon)
5) You will probably see a security mesage at the top of your browser window that reads:

'This website is using a scripted window to ask you for information. If you trust this website, click here to use scripted windows.'

Choose:

'Temporarily allow scripted windows'

6) Now press the small icon again and paste your YouTube url video address into the popup window that appears.

You now have an embedded video in your post text.

Easy!

Alternatively, if the video does not embed. Paste the url address of the video in a forum message, then place the following tag in front of it:

[ u r l ]

and then the following tag at the end of the url address:

[ / u r l ]

Type the above tags without using any spaces. This will create a direct link to the video for people to click on and view it from it's original source website.
