Adding a YouTube Video

Post by Bushman »

After currently reading a thread on posting pictures and just posting a YouTube video I thought I would show a cleaner way to post video's as most just add the link. Hope this makes sense to you all.

First choose the utube button above.

Next find the YouTube video you want to add and copy the link.

The next step is to remove the first part of the link only leaving the numbers and letters at the end.

Select preview to make sure it worked.

If it's what you want then post it! :D

Good stuff bushman!. I hope you don't mind me adding something, just delete it if you want to keep the thread clean. I click the share bit on the vid and open it in a email, and then copy paste just the numbers into the thread, I find it easier using a tablet.

No problem like they say in the States "More than one way to skin a cat".

This topic should be cleaned up and moved to the Forum Rules, Notifications and Helpful Hints forum... :idea:
