Title: How to embed video in post
Post by jarvissamuel on Jun 18^th, 2008 at 5:41pm

Not sure if this is the proper place but what needs to be done to embed a video in a post? Usually I just post a link the last one I tried using what youtube indicated for embedding in a website I guess its a little bit different here?

Thanks Sam

Hi Sam,

You can imbed a video by using the 'Insert Media' button.

Just paste the URL to the video in your post then highlight it and press the media button to frame it with the media tag and it should appear in the post.

Should look like this:

[media]http://www.youtube.com/v/cyVvbzQdqCw&rel=1[/media

I left the closing bracket off the end so you could see it.
