How do you post a video from Youtube on this forum?

When I try it just shows the link not the picture link. You can still get to the video but you have to click on the link. Other people are putting the video link up were you can see what the video looks like on this site and play it from here.

    Hey catloverplayer !
    If you click on Insert Media (camera icon) in the WYSYWYG editor, you can choose Video URL and paste your YouTube link in there. That should do the trick.

  • I don't see choose video URL in there I see From Computer and From Image URL.

    Shoot. Looks like it's currently not enabled for everyone. We'll review that next week, stay tuned.

    Maybe it's another one of those little glitches. It doesn't show up every time. At least not for me. I would try, wait a minute or so, and then try again.

  • It unfortunately isn't showing for me at all even when I wait. Also how do you post youtube videos on this forum with a phone? I haven't figured how to do that on my android phone.

    Im on my desk top computer and I can't add a video and haven't the option to add one. I guess it's only for the privileged. Not really loving the new Forum.
