Next, to add the video to a post, click on the 'video' icon. See image below.







Finally, with your cursor between the YouTube BB tags, right click and paste the YouTube ID. That's it. Done.








The final result will look like this:

A-HA! That must be why I don't see the icon. I'll try to figure it out. Thanks Bruce!

Hey Bill...do this:


On the main screen choose "UserCP" (User Control Panel)






Then Choose "Edit Options"











To make your message screen look like this...











Go to the very bottom of the Edit Options screen and choose "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" then save the changes. You should be good to go!

Leme try that.
I hate to be a complainer, but adding a video embedder to the forum is nice, you cut copy and paste the link and it does it automatically.
