Hi Folks,
I've made little mod to make it easy to embed a youtube video.
For this example, I will post Duke's "Freewheel" video.

The full URL to the video is:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gja_17zZgZQ

To embedded this video into the forum simply take everything after the "=" in the URL and post it in between "" and "".</YOUTUBE>

So simply typing:
Gja_17zZgZQ
Will give you:
Gja_17zZgZQ


:)
As a great man once said "Just like that!".

Aye, that there ^^ :)
I tried posting that code but obviously it just kept posting the video instead. On the up side, it's the first time I've ever posted a youtube video so yay :D

That is all you need you type. Each Youtube video has its own URL. Just copy everything after the = in the URL and post it exactly as Steve did there :)

Edit - Obviously delete the 3qRf76ww42o and replace it with the code in whatever video you want to post :D

Ah, ok, there's your problem :)
You're using the { and } symbols instead of the [ and ] symbols. You also need to put the / in before youtube in the second bracketed part :D

Simple as that.

If that is too complicated, then read my first post again.

Wrong brackets again Brixton :)
And you need to take out the = symbol aswell
You need to use the square bracket which is on the same keys as you found the { and } symbols, just don't hold down the shift key when you press them :)
And you still need to put in the / before the word youtube in the second bracketed part, so you need to put [/youtube] the second time :)

Edit - deleting my posts there Steve?
