I want to put a youtube video in a post and am wondering how I find what to put into the video ID part. I don't see it anywhere on the page of the youtube video.

The ID is in the YouTube URL.

For example:
www.youtube.com...

ID is pv5zWaTEVkI

Thanks for the help! I almost tried that, but I didn't want to mess it up and my post to be a big disappointment

Remember, if you aren't sure if your links, pictures, or videos are going to work, just use the Preview Post button. It really is a time saver!

Example:

On the YouTube video screen, look for the URL.

Copy/paste the URL

Then remove everything in front of (and including the) "v="

Like this:

PwzO4OoIW7o

Then add yvid-tags.

Like this:

[yvid]PwzO4OoIW7o[/yvid]

...to produce this result:

The batman car isnt as good as an example as this one is.

I clicked the youtube video button and paste these numbers, SWksEJQEYVU

This is very funny, Jim Cramer has a meltdown, much better example
