How to post YouTube Videos (as well as other media types)

Post by admin »

Nov 2022 - Deleted How To Post Post - no longer relevant.

The old way of adding YouTube videos no longer works. [youtube]{URL}[/youtube]

I tried to fix a lot of the video links but if you see post with just letters such as Nxn9SDWhOnA they are partial YouTube links. If you copy/paste and then add https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= in front of the letters you can find the original videos.

As of November 2022 you can just post full YouTube links and it should embed the video into the posts.

[color=#0000FF]This should work with all types of media links with the New Plug in (reddit, imgur, Insta, ect.) I'm not sure I like the idea of all these but I'll see how it goes.[/color]

Like this = (h)ttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxn9SDWhOnA Minus the ( ) around the h and it will look like below.




Unfortunately on older post you will still have to click the YouTube links.


Instagram test link.
