Can someone tell me how to post a YouTube video? On the help file, it says to enter "filename" between the TUBE commands... What does the "filename" consist of?

When you click on a YouTube video the web address finshes in watch?v=fileName it's the file name part you need eg:-

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXPunYxhU_8

[T U B E]SXPunYxhU_8[/T U B E]

Put in TUBE without the spaces into your post

Yes it is, just make sure you have enabled Flash and YouTube content from the admin area under the forum configuration page.

A hint of WebWiz-Bruce is not running, but pick only the end of the http address as in the example:

Http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXPunYxhU_8

[T U B E] SXPunYxhU_8 [/ T U B E]

To post videos on YouTube have to go in and get the Embed code displayed only the address http

Example:

<object Width="425" height="355"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oeksPIqI9Po&rel=1"> </ param>
<param Name="wmode" value="transparent"> </ param>
<embed Src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oeksPIqI9Po&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355">
</ Embed> </ object>

And place between the command [T U B E] http://www.youtube.com/v/oeksPIqI9Po&rel=1 - http://www.youtube.com/v/oeksPIqI9Po&rel=1 [/ T U B E]

Why is not working but as WebWiz-Bruce informed?

Has something that I change?

Try removing the spaces in [T U B E] and [/ T U B E]
