Video in a post

Hello, i have one question Can I put a video perhaps from youtube.com in my post in a forum ??? So it play right up on the forum ? Thank you for an answer
(I´m sorry for my english)

Hello Lenne and welcome on Editboard !

Yes you can put a video from Youtube, you should activate html in the administration panel (in the configuration of your forum).

But, there is two importants points :

- if you put a video wich have a copyright, you need an autorisation of the autor
- Be careful because the activation of the HTML can give some errors if the member who use it make an error in his code.

Good luck !

O.K,thank you and how I to do that ? Is there something special things, which I have to write there ? I´m sorry, I´m just an amateur Thank you

To activate HTML :

Go to your administration panel -> General admin - Configuration
At the top, click on the menu "User and forum settings" and choose "Yes" in the line Allow HTML.

To put a video with You tube :

You have a video, for example -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qNbRtR3N0I

You have a little box near the video with two codes. look at my screenshot


Copy the code in a post and submit

That's all !
