    Default How do you embed a youtube video?

    I've tried many times, but I could never get it right. n_n;; I know there's a little button for embedding videos, but it hates me.

    You have to use the video ID, which is the 11-character string of letters, numbers, etc. in the URL that comes after the v= (and before the next & if there is one). It's the bolded part here:

    youtube.com/watch?v=0pCp8g-VjOs
    youtu.be/0pCp8g-VjOs

    That's the part you wanna put between the [youtube][youtube] tags. Like so:

    No Rantz is wrong, you must first write to Youtube and ask them if you can have the secret password and then you must feed it to a monkey and only then can you embed a youtube video.

    That's weird.

    I thought it's just "[video] "youtube link" [/ video]

    Always work for me.

    PS: ensure there isn't a space between / and video in the closing statement.

    Directly to the right of the insert picture button. Right beside it. Looks like a video reel.
    tags work too [ video ] link [ video ] without spaces.
