So, when you create a post there is an option that looks like [BB]
Select it and choose :

[YOUTUBE][/YOUTUBE]

It says to put a youtube link in between like :
[YOUTUBE] your Link [/YOUTUBE]

And here what i have found tricky, the link that you put, should be a full link of a shared link. Confused?
I will show.

So under each you tube video, you have a button SHARE once you click it is gives you the link like :

http://youtu.be/e9eT9zScgAo

That WOULD NOT WORK!

you need to copy that, paste into new tab/window and you tube will reload same link showing full adress:

http://www.youtube.com/w...gAo&feature=youtu.be

That exactly what you need to paste in between the [YOUTUBE] your Link [/YOUTUBE]
That is how it looks on this forum :


there is another option in youtube, once you press SHARE, there is embed , copy all that :

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/e9eT9zScgAo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

And it doesn't work as it is designed for websites, like wordpress blogs etc....

Hope you find it useful :-)
