HOWTO: Post a Youtube Video in your Post
« on: June 14, 2010, 03:30:33 PM »
To post a youtube video in your post, simply copy and paste the URL to the video in your post, and it will be embedded.

So this in your post:
Code: [Select]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOXTxjsDD0s
will show up as this:
vinyl cutter


Thanks to ClawGFX for the plugin tip!

If you get the All Video Plugin for SMF then all they need is the link to the URL itself and it will auto-embed

Looks like the newer version has added a gallery as well but you could install the older Avea to just get the auto embed features, That is what the USC forum is running

Sorry about that, It used to be called All Video but they changed it a while back..
