How do you post a YouTube video?

[maliakei]

Sometimes I see members posting YouTube videos on this forum. How do you do that?

I found a funny TV show clip and would like to share on Clothesfree, but all I know how to do is copy & paste the weblink. I'd prefer to post the video. Let me know. Thanks.

On the video it should have something that says embed. If the video doesn't say "embedding disabled by request" there should be a code. Simply copy and paste the embedding code like you would a link. The video should show up.

Question:

Some YouTube videos will have no code to copy after the word "Embed" .

Instead it will say : Embedding disabled by request

Then how do you post that particular YouTube video?

The only other way I know is to just copy the URL and use as a link instead of a show clip (or whatever the terminology is).

No rush in replying. I just want to know for future sake.

Thanks!

If it says "Embedding disabled by request" you can't embed the clip. You'll just have to provide a link to that clip.
