How do I get YT videos to actually show up?

I would like to post doumentaries or fun (not naughty) silly stuff related to the topic in a way but they show up as hyperlinks instead of the video embedded.

Click quote on this post and then copy the text in the brackets, replacing the address with your desired link.

Click on the YouTube button above the field for writing (it's the second to the right) in the field provided you want to copy and paste everything after youtube.com/watch?v=

Copy paste everything after the = in the URL field.

That would embed the video, i think he wants a hyperlink.

Take for example the YT link above.

Copy the numbers and letters after the V=

Funny, silly videos may sometimes be off topic.

As a rule, it is better to embed YT videos.

Testing, check one, two, three, four.

Just click the share link on the YouTube video then copy link.

Come here click on the YouTube link and paste, then delete everything except the code.

For example, when I hit share and copied on this video I got, https:// youtu.be/ YVkUvmDQ3HY. But to actually embed the video you just want to put in YVkUvmDQ3HY

Funny stuff that is out of this world, you got to tap into the Asian culture. Make sure you have some Asahi beer on order.

Go to the YouTube icon upper right. Once there, paste the video in the white box.
You'll get something like this.


Leave the FORWARD SLASH. Delete everything you see in the red.

I'll try that. Here's AG Weather Snodgrass that does a global weather review every few days showing different ocean conditions,etc Aqp7onlILm0?t=1

Oh I didn't notice the YT icon. So tiny on my computer. I don't use a phone so it's clear this website is made for phone users due to how tiny everything is.

The mods watch everything we do.... and members whom don't have a life like me, see the boards more often.

Board and Business forum is the right place.

See ya around.
