    Alright so say I am trying to embedd a youtube video to a post. Here is the URL

    So I get this (zPc2hgcDQE8) and put it in the Youtube tags

    Now heres what happens



    Am I doing something wrong or is it my computer or what? I have looked at the BB code list and all says is to do what I did. I have looked for a solution but I cannot find one. Please help.
     
    Get the hyperlink for the video you want, say, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXQViqx6GMY

    Remove everything that comes before the 'v=', to be left with v=yXQViqx6GMY

    Change the = into a /, to be left with v/yXQViqx6GMY

    Then insert this into YouTube tags, like so: [YOUTUBE*]v/yXQViqx6GMY[/YOUTUBE] (But remove the asterisk from the first tag, obviously.)

    The end result should look like this:

     
    So this is the link (
    ) and heres a screenshot of what I did.

    Oh my god thank you. I finally did it. Thanks to Mr CatDog as well for helping.
     
    Nope, that didn't work. Even on an iPad you've still gotta take everything after "v=" and put it into
