You will see a YouTube button above the posting area. You just have to go to the YouTube video and get the URL. Drag your mouse over the URL and to highlight it, and click the "youtube" button. Example below.

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ5Hw-rADgo
if you are on the YouTube channel URL then it will not work on the forum, just click on the video URL, and it will give you the correct URL.

Example:
Go to : [Please login or register to view this link]
That is my channel for YouTube. Now if you click on a video on the right side it will change the URL to

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/user/circusmobile#p/a/u/0/TZ5Hw-rADgo
Just paste the URL into the forum
[/size]

If you highlight that and click youtube button, then it will not work. But if you click on the name of the video at the bottom of the video then it changes URL to

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ5Hw-rADgo&feature=channel_video_title
The part of the video that you want to post in the forum is the first part. The part that says, "&feature=channel_video_title" you just want to remove completely.

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ5Hw-rADgo
Pretty much the URL that you want to post on the forum is

Code: Select all

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=
and then the portion of the URL after that is the video ID number.

Code: Select all

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZ5Hw-rADgo[/youtube]
This is the result.
