    Unable to view imbedded Youtube videos

    Is it just me or is anyone else having this problem? They just appear as a little black square.

    I went to the forum options and didn't find anything about imbedded video.

    I attempted to post a YouTube video yesterday. It normally automatically imbeds. This one didn't. It just left the link there.

    It looks like the customized code we were using for the functionality is no longer supported, so I'll have to see if I can find a suitable replacement. Thanks for letting me know.

    I installed a new one, but it requires wrapping the [ yt ] and [ /yt ] tags around the Youtube URL (without the spaces between the brackets). Unfortunately, I don't see any way around this to make it function like the old one, but it should be better than nothing.

    Don't include spaces between '[' and the 'y', the 't' and the ']', the '[' and the '/' and the 't' and the ']'.

    Sorry about the above two posts I was trying to figure out if I could embed from an Ipad. I have not done this with any success and unfortunately continued that failure yesterday.
