Alternatvely, you can type the code yourself:

Bellow a Youtube video, you normally get the option to click on Share: Doing so brings about the URL address of the video, that is what you copy and paste into the Youtube tag here.

You have to place the link within the Youtube tag. For example, pasting just the link to the video will not work.

As you can see, the link on its own won't do, and will only appear as a link to the video. For the video to appear embedded in your post you have to click on the Youtube button above the smilies

and then paste the link within the Youtube tag like this
