I finally did it! Nice!

Here is my url that I copied from youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O7Eb...yer_detailpage


Just take everything between the 2 equals signs from the url that you pasted and copy them between the youtube brackets

[youtube]your url goes here[ /youtube] then before you post it put your cursor on the left side of the forward slash and hit backspace then yur ready to post. My example still has the space below to show

WHat if you don't want it embedded and you want just the link ( i.e. The link to actually take em to the video on youtube itself instead of just watching the embedded video)??

Okay so this is going to show all the people how to embed a video from youtube onto the forum so you dont have to click a link.

Step one go onto youtube, any video (first be known that not all video's can be embed but most can)



Now highlight where it sais (in the above picture) by right clicking the address and clicking copy.

Now once you have that link come to the bodybuilding forum, in any section that the video is appropriate.

Now take that link that you copied and pasted.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=mrTUhkN7RFA

Now get rid of everything that it had in the name except for the last part.

So all the numbers and letters in the name AFTER the = sign. For those of you that will have problems with this everything on the right side of the Eguals sign must stay and the rest will go making it look something like this.

mrTUhkN7RFA this address if only for this specific video

Now this is only half of the battle to get the video embed onto the Forum.

In Order to get that link to go from the link circled in green(below) to the embed picture in black (below). You have two use two crucial symbols.



Those two symbols that you have to use are

[youtube] [ /youtube] - Now dont leave the space like i did inbetween the [ and the / in the second youtube in brackets.

Now when you combine

mrTUhkN7RFA

With

[youtube] [ /youtube]

You should get



Which looks like [youtube]mrTUhkN7RFA[ /youtube]- but without that space.

If it is done wrong it will most likely look like this (see below)

It most likely means that you left the equals sign in with it and if that's the case just remove it and post it again and it should work. (But once again remember that not all video's work to embed but most of them do.)

Warning-numbers are only highlighted for your benefit and should not be highlighted in order to embed

Cliff notes for those who want them

*First go onto youtube
*Find a video that you want-highlight the address by right clicking and copying it
*Then erase all of the address on the right side of the = including the equals
* then take what you have mrTUhkN7RFA
* take [youtube] [ /youtube]
Combine both mrTUhkN7RFA and [youtube] [ /youtube] combine them both together and you got yourself a embed video.

Should be ready to go on the forum

Thank you so much for this!
