We can now embed YouTube videos into our posts. Here's how:
- Find a video on YouTube. For example, LTO's A bit of excitement.
- Look at the URL in your browser:
- Code: Select all
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtu14d40HRU
- Take the code that appears after the v= portion of the URL. In this case, it is xtu14d40HRU.
Note, sometimes YouTube URLs can be more complicated. For example, this video has additional information that we don't want to include:
- Code: Select all
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0890Tu8E0s&feature=related
In this case, you would just take V0890Tu8E0s (after v= and before the &).
- Back to LTO's video, we can simply use the following code to embed the video in your post:
- Code: Select all
[youtube]xtu14d40HRU[/youtube]
And the end result:
