Inserting Youtube Videos Into Posts

[Heavy-Chevy]

I'm sure this might have been covered in another post but I couldn't find any so I'm posting it here.  I'm having some trouble inserting a Youtube video in a post http://www.sneezefetishforum.org/index.php?/topic/66059-great-cover-versions/&page=2#comment-780207

I've copied the Iframe code and URL from Youtube and I've tried inserting it directly into my post, as well as using the code option but every time I save, it only displays the HTML.  Am I missing something?

Looking at the editing history of your post, you had actually achieved it in one of your earlier posting attempts, so I'm not sure if there was a glitch or something.

Anyway, I have edited your post to put the link back in.

Inserting links can be done either by copying and pasting them directly into the post (as I did in this case), or by use of the "link" button from the options above, when posting in the reply box.

If you mean embedding the actual mini video player into the posts, just copy-pasting the URL without the iframe stuff or inserting it as a link should automatically convert it. At least, it does for my browser/computer.

Thanks Joal, but what I was actually trying to do was embed the mini video player directly into the post.  That's what I'm having trouble figuring out.

I did try to copy the URL both with and without the iframe tags but I was only able to get either a text link or the HTML code display.
