You just posted the straight link...

Take everything after the "=" in the youtube link and put it between this:

So it looks like this before you post it:

Capture-162.jpg


And shows up like this:

Very helpful info Jeff. I was one of those folks who wasn't aware that forum changes affect YouTube embedded links. Now I'm good to go. :)

FYI, Jefe or anyone else interested, instead of having to make an image that shows example "code", so that it isn't parsed by the forum scripts, you can use the following tag instead:

[noparse][noparse][/noparse][/noparse]

This stops the underlying php parser (the forum) from parsing anything that normally would be, such as pasting a url directly into a post or any vB tags (img, url, youtube_browser, etc.).

For example, you can now say something like:



[noparse]Say you want to post a youtube link but you want it to show as a video rather than a link to a youtube page.

All you do is take the part of the url between "v=" and the first "&" you come across, assuming there is one (keep in mind, not all youtube links have an "&" but all videos have a "v=" part).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[/noparse]9GgaBQ0ZM9c[noparse]&NR=1

And paste it inside the [youtube_browser][/youtube_browser] vB tag like so:

[youtube_browser]9GgaBQ0ZM9c[/youtube_browser]

and it turns http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GgaBQ0ZM9c&NR=1

from this:
[/noparse]
YouTube - CIMG0882.AVI

into this:
[youtube_browser]9GgaBQ0ZM9c[/youtube_browser]

you need to write it down theres no icon to click on, you just write [ youtube_browser]here goes the numbers from the youtube video and then [/youtube_browser] and thats it, click on post and you should be ready to go. but it goes with out any space, its all together.
