Youtube code

How do you embed a youtube video?

I see the button and it creates a

Code: Select all

[youtube][/youtube]

BBcode, but
when I embed the url it looks like this: [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/embed/WZ1wRbXku0E[/youtube]

What am I doing wrong?

Hi kraken,

I was curious for that too,
and I have figured it out figured it out:
Add "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=" for your code instead of "embed"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ1wRbXku0E

And add the youtube to it and this is the result shown below,
Greetz,

Thanks, that is so strange, I used the URL you suggested on a previous post and it didn't work, but now it does.

You probably forgot the www. in the URL, which is a common mistake.
