SirStanierFan6229 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hi, I am relatively new to RM web, and was wondering how you upload a Youtube video into your post, as I cannot seem to just copy and paste in the link... could just be my laptop playing up, but I'd be grateful for some advice.

peter220950 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I just copy the www. header from the top of the browser and paste it into the 'reply' box, seems to work o.k. and shows the video in the post. Taking one at random, I have just opened a You Tube video in a separate tab, gone to the www. address, highlighted it by clicking on it, ControlC to copy it, ControlV pastes it into the post as below:- Should show the video. If you click on Reply with attachments in the bottom RHS of the rely box it should show if it's worked prior to posting. The other alternative is to post into the Test area on RMWeb to see if it works. Peter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirStanierFan6229 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not pasting for some reason... Oh well, I'll just use another computer, and see if that solves the issue. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind that depending on settings of your browser, the link may not give you a YT video, but just the link.. Not pasting for some reason... Oh well, I'll just use another computer, and see if that solves the issue. Thanks. I've just logged on to the main computer, and now it works fine... See! Thanks all.

HRH_Dan_Hull Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 if you copy a youtube link make sure it starts 'http' not 'https' if it doesn't work, delete the s and try another preview, it should work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
