There have been a few issues lately with people trying and not being able to embed YOUTUBE videos in their posts.

was installed a bit ago. SO here are some basic instructions. Mind you this feature ONLY works with YouTube videos

**Select the video from YouTube you want to embed into your post. The link to the video will look like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOvkNmZ1TlY

**Highlight that video ID and "copy" it and you will end up with something that looks like this: KOvkNmZ1TlY
**Hit the post reply button at the bottom of the thread. The feature does not work with the "quick reply" box.
**Hit the YouTube button at the top of the reply box:

**When you hit the "Tube" button the following will appear on your screen: The cursor will be flashing between the two sets of "

Hope this helps out folks that were having a difficult time using this feature." frameborder="0"> " frameborder="0"> " frameborder="0"> " frameborder="0">
