Embedding Youtube video

kerblokerblo Registered User regular
I have an animation I want to show on the art forum. When I copy and pasted the embed code and nothing showed up. Could someone tell me what to do?

Thanks

    The way that tends to work for me is using [!url=<YouTube video URL>]<description/caption/thing>[/url!] (but without the exclamation marks).

    If you don't care about having the caption you don't even need to bother with the url tags. Just have the url in the post and the forum will automatically add the tags and embed the video.

    indeed. The forums do magic based on the URL to the video. embed code is for, like, posting on your blog.
