How to post a video on forum?
First off, I was about to put this on the General Questions or Technical Support sections, but thought Off-Topic was the best choice.
How do I post a video without having to post the link, like this: www.youtube.com
How do I make it in the forum instead of having to click the link? I hope you guys get what I am trying to say.
Thanks

You can not upload videos directly into the forum. The only way to show a video directly in a post is by doing the following:
- upload the video on youtube
- in the forum go to the full editor for editing posts, which is available by clicking on the "Full Editor & Preview" button at the bottom of the "quick Reply" section
- in the full editor click on the "youtube" button at the top right, next to the "spoiler" button; this will give you two "youtube" tags at the current cursor position
- put the ID of the video you got from youtube between the two "youtube" tags
So for example if the link to the video looks like the following:
your "youtube" tag would have to look like this:
I would still post the full link to the video as well so that people can go to youtube directly in case they want to leave comments etc.
- upload the video on youtube
- in the forum go to the full editor for editing posts, which is available by clicking on the "Full Editor & Preview" button at the bottom of the "quick Reply" section
- in the full editor click on the "youtube" button at the top right, next to the "spoiler" button; this will give you two "youtube" tags at the current cursor position
- put the ID of the video you got from youtube between the two "youtube" tags
So for example if the link to the video looks like the following:
Code: Select all

Code: Select all
