The youtube dump

Kari, et al - to post you tube videos here, it's easy. Just go to any You tube video that you want to post.

You see a URL in your browser address bar like so:

Code:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3AeYR3kbQk&feature=popular

Copy the part between

Code:

watch?v=

and

Code:

&feature=popular

or

Code:

&hl

- basically that funcky 6-11 character string

Now, simply use the system's built in

Code:

[youtube ] & [/youtube ]

codes with that string in the middle, like so:

Code:

[ youtube]i3AeYR3kbQk[/youtube ]

   Warning

The code above has two extra spaces in it so you can see it in the code bracket - remove both of those extra spaces!!!

check this kid out........ his knowledge is astounding










great kid.....

Do you mean you can not see videos I've posted? I certainly see them in my posts, tried different browsers in different rigs.

EDIT: I've done it so: copied the "embed" code from youtube and put it between Youtube tags. Is this not a correct way to do?

All I do is paste the link into the "Post Reply" window then "Preview Post" then "Submit Reply" and they post, I don't wrap it in tags it does all that automatically.

OK, now I understand. I can see videos I posted because you have edited my post. Thank you for that, and for a helpful tip.

Now I aloso understand why Ken had so must trouble when trying to see my SevenForums gadget example video which I posted in SevenForums gadget thread. I have to go through all my posts including wideo and edit them.

Once more, thank you.

Kari

Edit: Went through all my posts including Youtube video and edited them. Nice tip, sorry the troble John.
