There must be some geeky clever fellows on here, sadly I'm a watch geek not a video embed code geek so.....
Can somebody tell me how to embed a youtube vid clip onto a post ?
The "copy video url" and "embed video code" etc etc etc doesn't work when enclosed in the youtube tab.
I want to include the video not a link to the video.
What gives here please ?
Video embed question for a geek ?
Re: Video embed question for a geek ?
I used the following:
[yootube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-Ds-FXGGQg[/yootube]
(swap yootube for youtube at the start and end, and copy the link you see when you are watching the video on youtube)

Greg, check if it's https in the link
If so, when you insert between tags, take out the S so it's just http
Works for me.
