Just copy and paste the URL; do not use the link function.

Looks like you did cut + paste the URL, Symp. The only way I can embed vids to display like Mike's is to use media "tags" like this

 

Add this immediately to the end of the URL:

[/media]

 

and add this immediately to the beginning of the URL:

[media]

 

I can't show you the whole line because then the tags will be executed and disappear

Au contraire, mon ami, Zombie.

 

I just copy and paste a video URL such as from youtube.  I do not use the media tags.

I'm no techy Mike so I can only say what works for me. But looking at Symp's post #288 all I see in that post is the URL in blue and underlined. Which is what I've had when I simply pasted a URL, so I assumed Symp did the same. So if anyone can explain why Symp's pasted URL didn't embed even though it still works fine then that would be useful to know

[thebrinkoftime]

Perhaps the difference comes because MikeL is obviously using some sort of special format for his posts and he might be posting in a different mode than Sympathia where tags are not needed. I notice for instance if you flick on BB Code Mode, it doesn't turn off until even if you make another post, at least on my browser.

In the above, I turned BB Code Mode on before I cut and paste the URL in. But if I turn it off again and post a regular link, it seems to still work.

BBC Code Mode? Oh no! - something else I know nothing about *moans*

[thebrinkoftime]

You see that switch next to the eraser in the posting panel? That's BB (Bulletin Board) Code Mode. HTML code and BB Code often differ. For instance, BB Code for links is usual "" or "[url=]" and so on. But the HTML code is I think something like "<a href=>" or something. So flipping that switch on tells the posting dialogue box you want it to default to normal BB Code, but there are special kinds of it as well, where you might want help being more specific, which is why there is a drop down menu to the right of the eraser for removing formats.

 

I think, I'm not an expert, this is only conjecture, do not use it against me in a court of law.
