=; Some of you who have had a go at uploading a YouTube Video may have noticed that occasionally, :-k it doesn't quite work as expected... #-o
Bobcat wrote:Hi Rick,

For some reason YouTube uploads are not working for me anymore. I right click on the YT video (Copy Video URL), go to my post, click on the
YouTube link and then Ctrl+V to input. Nuddah!! Any suggestions? BE NICE!!

Example:

[YouTube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8VvGbH ... detailpage[/YouTube]

Cheers,
Liz
It was something that :angry9: frustrated :swear1: us as well, 'til we stumbled over the solution... :omg1: Here's how to fix it... :evil3:
Hippy Chippy wrote:Yeah, tricky that... :oopssign:

Whilst we were told that our YouTube Module accepted both 'http' and 'https' prefixes, it doesn't... #-o

If you have trouble uploading a YouTube video, check that it doesn't have an 's' after the 'http', if it does, just remove the 's' as I've done below...

[YouTube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8VvGbHNBww&fea ... detailpage[/YouTube]

Now without the 's'...
:yea: :figjam: :yea:
