    Embedding youtube video

    I've looked online to see how and I still can't get it to work. Can anyone explain it to me.

    When I go to youtube here is the embed code they give me:

    When you go to YouTube to watch a video, the address bar will look like this:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTBFS7OjTGo

    In the reply box on our site, just put [youtube= and then the code at the top, in this case aTBFS7OjTGo, with another bracket. Then, obviously the [/youtube]

    Er, wait. The code, aTBFS7OjTGo, goes in between [youtube] and [ / youtube], without the spaces, obviously.

    It works for me.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Guys, stop using the [youtube] tag already.
    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Yep. Use the [video] tag. Much better.
