If you would like to include a video from YouTube in your forum posts, here's how to do it!
- Navigate your browser to YouTube.com and find the video of your choice.
- Note that to the right of the video on Youtube there are two boxes, one labelled 'URL' and the other labelled 'Embed'
- Left-click inside the 'URL' box, and all of the text inside the box will be highlighted.
- Right-click on the highlighted text and then select 'Copy'.
- Return to The MeridianTeaParty.com Forum and create a post and type whatever you like. At the point where you'd like to insert the video, press enter to get a new line.
- Type the following without quotes or spaces: “[ youtube ]“
- Immediately following the last backet, press 'CTRL-V' to paste in the URL of the video you want to include.
- At the very end of the URL, type the following without quotes or spaces: “[ /youtube ]”
- Press Enter to start a new line to continue typing your comments
- When you are finished, save the post and you are done. When the page is displayed, the video will automatically be inserted into your post.
