Title: You tube query (embedded video)
Post by: aleon515 on March 30, 2013, 08:15:11 PM
Hi,

I have a new youtube channel. I am posting transition videos. Anyway it seems like if post somewhere, even Facebook,  it is hit or miss whether there is  embedded video. I want embedded videos, so is there something I am doing wrong?

I broke up the code above with an asterisk so you see what it should look like. If I replace the asterisk with a period we get this:

Is that what you're asking? Hugs, Devlyn

It was YouTube, still in my clipboard from earlier, so I figured we could have a lesson, and go back to our days of pajamas with feet, again.

Ok, so the embedded message in the code is:
=youtube_gdata_player

??
As there is a part of the above that gives you the URL. And why is it that I sometimes am embedding and sometime not? It seems random.

I've never had trouble posting from YouTube here, there may be a limit, though? We need someone who actually knows about technology, to umm, bail me out here!
