I just wanted to let everyone know that you can embed Youtube and google videos in forum posts here at AC. This allows members to view the video directly on our site instead of having to go to youtube.
To embed such as this one
into the forum you simply use the youtube tag and write yt in brackets []. than you write the number after the = in the youtube url. In this case 1p0626dye8w and then you write /yt in brackets.
It should then look like this ["yt]1p0626dye8w["/yt] (without the " signs that I wrote to make sure that the forum displays the coden.
If you use this code the result is this:
I personally think this is much better than having to go to youtube to watch the video and I would urge people to use this function when they post youtube videos.
If you want to post google videos you do it in the same way but use the tag gv instead on yt
many thanks ficialicious, only problem now is can you add a warning to it, my partner is swearing at the dog, i did however manage it upload it on the main video forum and another moderator has added the warning for me as i dont want to offend anyone.

I am trying to do this, so where do you do all this entering of codes? I tried to copy & paste the url originally (downloaded my Angelfish video to Youtube, did the copy & paste thing,got an invalid file message,didn't work), sent a PM to Lady Hobbs asking for help, & she sent me this info, only problem is, I'm not tech-savvy, so could you spell it out for me step-by-step, as I really want to learn how to do this. Its probably very easy to do, just never did anything like this before
