Title: Linking To YouTube Videos
Post by: Big-Ray on December 05, 2013, 14:45:40 PM
In a previous forum when I linked to a YouTube video it came up in the post with the opening scene, and peeps clicked on it to watch.
When I try the same here, it just shows the url or embed code. Is that summat I am doing wrong, or a forum setting??

:thanx:

Click on the youtube icon and insert the link in between? NB some youtube vids are now HTTPS: so might not work.

In my previous post I even copy and pasted code you used earlier, which worked for you. :bang:
guess what, it didn't work for me. I'm cursed :dig:
