Embedding Youtube Vids in WF

Sorry - maybe I was not specific enough. I want it to be played in WF, rather than just a link that takes you outside of WF. Or am I pasting the link wrong...
thx
 
The parser appears to be broken.

I too have been having troubles with this lately and don't know why. (Coding is not my strong suit.)


This is how I use embed a YouTube Video and it worked flawlessly until recently:


Copy the URL and add to it...... &feature=player_embedded

Example: If you want this link to show up as a player in the post...

Code:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqVBe_SMQe8
It would then be converted into this:
Code:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqVBe_SMQe8[B]&feature=player_embedded[/B]
The first one here will be the way I do it and the second one will be just the URL of the video.

YouTube - Full Throttle Douche Bottle

YouTube - Full Throttle Douche Bottle


It should then show the player in the preview before posting. (It is only showing as a LINK in the preview for me right now. ARGH!! Lulz)


If not, then it most likely will just be a link in the actual post.



It's only been the last month or so that I've had this problem.



There are some people here who know the "Secret" though, since I see the player in some posts.


 
Yeah it's not a active in the newbie forum

Didn't know that ^.
But you want to copy the code from share on youtube and post that. It will still look like a link. After you submit your post Then the forum will turn it into a vid that can be played here on WF. If I am understanding the OP's 2nd question correctly.
