How to Embed Youtube Videos July 18, 2013, 03:59:47 pm Hi Everyone,PI2C asked how to embed Youtube videos. This is the procedure:When creating a new post, you will see a button with the icon .... Click it. Once clicked you will see in your post the following:Code: [Select][flash=200,200][/flash]You can change the 200,200 values above to increase/decrease the size of your video to suit your needs. Now copy the video URL you want to post. You should have something like:Code: [Select]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5e6m0VbgSGcYou will need to slightly edit the URL to work. This is how you do it:Paste the URL between:Code: [Select][flash=200,200]andCode: [Select][/flash]Now replace “watch?v=” in the URL with “v/’ and your final string should look like this:Code: [Select][flash=200,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]Which will give you a result like this:[flash=200,200]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]Increasing the:Code: [Select][flash=200,200]toCode: [Select][flash=400,400]Will give you this:[flash=400,400]http://www.youtube.com/v/5e6m0VbgSGc[/flash]Now play my Youtube submission and thank me later for enlightening you...
