Posting youtube videos into a thread

[glindhout]

For any newbies like me, trying to post a youtube video into a thread:

To post a youtube video viewable directly from your thread, type the following command (with the ########### representing your youtube video ID)...

Your youtube video ID can be emailed to you from youtube, or you can find it to the right of your youtube video in the information box (listed as URL). It will look something like this:

where the numbers and letters after the ?v= is your video ID.

Your video will display in the thread like this...

I've said before that the youtube link choice should be one of the icons up there with insert picture, link, or quote.

Very nice Greg. Thanks. That will save folks time going through Trial and Error getting it right. There is a new version of our Forum software that we have not installed yet -- maybe it makes "embed YouTube" a clickable option. I will check.
