YouTube Video Embed Info

[WB Staff]

Thanks to Bearded Bassin for bring up this question and here is the answer to assist him and others. Thank you for the support of the site.


YouTube has added some code on to their copy and past method as well as their URL copy and past method of sharing.

Here is the workaround for to embed a vid.

Use the SHARE ARROW under the vid on the YT page, not the URL.
Remove the code starting with the ?, meaning delete this ?feature=shared

Here is an example of what the SHARE ARROW code looks like compared to how it will look after the delete

Highlight the remaining code and click the YOUTUBE option on top of the post box. It will then look like this.



And viola it is embedded.
