    No, I was trying to add a youtube video but it failed. Don't know who to do and the forum help thread is 64 pages long so I gave up finding out.

    I think you just paste the link into the message...don't use the link button in the edit ribbon, just paste the link, like this:

    Is it really that simple. I'll give it a try then, thanks!

    Hm, can't get it to work. I'm using IE, can that be why?

    On the YouTube page click on Share, then copy and paste the link that pops up below that.

    Or click on Cher.

    OK, menu is in Danish here so no Share but something that translates into "Copy embedded code" (iframe), I guess it must be that. If you quote a post with an youtube video you only see the url not the iframe code, that was what confused me.

    Thanks!

    Hm, okay, found a Share (Del in Danish) link anyway, it's different from the first I tried so lets try that. In lack of a Halloween witch lets try a Halloween bitch instead, for testing:

    Hm, no? Then iframe?

    Well that was what I did in my previous post above but it didn't work, it just displays the link. Placing the iframe code in the source worked however.

    Strange    works for me

    no fancy nancy  source code stuff or using the rich text editor,   simply copying the code and doing a simple paste here.

    Nope, still not working. Maybe a browser or browser configuration thing (I'm using IE)?

    can't test that for you.  I disabled IE on my PC yonks ago,  around about the IE 11 time

    It's strange your paste is showing as a link.    When I paste it shows just as normal text until I post the comment   https://   youtu.be/bv4q4Kk0Qr0

    I have inserted a gap, so it didn't turn into a link, to show you what I mean,  but I see that,  properly formatted, as just text, not as a hyperlink.

  • You are using the link code still - just paste the URL into the text as you type -

    You used the link button in the edit window, didn't you?  Don't do that, just paste the link, as though you were pasting text that you cut from another document.

    I didn't even do that...I just copied the link from the address bar and pasted it into the message.

    Yeah that doesn't work for me. I use Chrome, and wasn't getting it to work someone told me to use the Share text trick to embed videos.
