Embedding YouTube video in post?

egenriether

Hi,

I'm trying to embed a YouTube video in a post, rather than just posting the url. I see it's done in a lot of places but I can't get it to work. When I try to upload the url with Manage Attachments > Add Files > Website and then paste the url into the field it says "invalid file". I also tried copying the embed code from YouTube and putting inside of [html][/html] for example and it only shows up as code. I read a few posts with image uploading (which I can get to work) but didn't see posts for videos from urls. Any help would be appreciated!

Of course as soon as I posted this the "Similar Posts" box at the bottom led me to the exact topic I couldn't find with my search query. Problem solved thanks to Phil P.

Cool, looks like you have found a way of searching the forums that actually works!

Why did we not think of that before?
