Adding Youtube in Posts - Lost Community Forums - Official Spoiler-free Lost Fansite

***D-Roc*** · 11-27-2007, 07:32 PM

I know that a few of you would like to know how to add a youtube screen in a post. Just do the following:

1)Go to youtube.com and find the video that you want to post
2) Copy the part of the URL which is 'after' the '='
3) Using the forum, make a post and place the code you have just copied within the following brackets (don't include the asterix):

[youtube*]YOUR CODE GOES HERE[/youtube]

*Your code will look something like this (without the asterix):

[youtube*]x8jnsk3d[/youtube]

Sumit your post and the video should show, if you've done it correctly.

This has now been updated - for a better/easier way to add youtube videos in posts please see this thread: http://www.lostcommunity.co.uk/forums/official-announcements-updates/7469-autoembedding-youtube-etc.html
