Post by dirtyboy »

You can now post video and embed it so you don't have a ton of windows open. Here is how you do it:


YouTube ID
Find the video you want to post on YouTube.
Click the "Share" button below the video
Copy the URL to your clipboard.
In your post, click the YouTubeID button.
paste the URL in between the [youtubeid][/youtubeid] code. It should look like and display like the following:

Code: Select all

[youtubeid]FOZkgBhdjP0[/youtubeid]



Vimeo
Find the video you want to post on Vimeo.
Copy the Video id from the Vimeo site. (If the URL is http://vimeo.com/29225095 then use 29225095 for the Vimeo Video ID)
In your post, click the vimeo button where you want the video to display.
Paste the Vimeo id in between the Vimeo code.
It should look like the following:

Code: Select all

[vimeo]29225095[/vimeo]

Update !

The code has been updated for Vimeo and YouTube. When posting it works the same as it always did, however for viewing it is more user friendly with additional options.

Thanks for posting the videos using the vimeo and youtubeid buttons! :thumbsup:
