Title: Forum embed codes?
Post by: TiaDefiant on November 10, 2018, 11:21:08 PM

Was just wondering, what code would I need to use to put youtube links on my profile. Tried the embed code provided by youtube, doesn't work.
I admit, I'm fairly tech ignorant, so some help would be great.

I looked into this issue and figured out that if you use the "object" html code, the video will display properly. I tried "iframe" and "embed" and neither of those worked for me at this moment in time.

Here's a sample of what I used on my profile:

Code: [Select]

<object data="http://www.youtube.com/embed/9KiymmAIGQM"</object>
To note, you must have "Ultimate Profile" enabled and you must use either "My Media" or "Customization" sections for this to display.

Thank you so much. Every forum I'm on is different, and I admit, I'm not tech savvy. If you need to know how to tan an animal hide, make moccasins, or cook with using nothing but 3 ingredients, I can do it. Not so much with the computer stuff.
