Thanks

I couldn't find it, most peole are using the normal share link. If you figure it out, let me know.

^^^^^ your link was close. if you press share and copy the code, it will look like this:

to make a working link, you need to wrap it. i.e: enter link here [url/] Or you can ...t for you: [media=youtube]kS4SM_Oqm6I[/media]

Also you cant embed here, due to the forum having its html set to off. To turn it on WILL use space on the server better used for other things.

You can embed them in certain sub-forums, such as the general tool forum. This section does not allow it. When on YouTube, you need to click "share" then "embed" then grab the code, which is provided in an iframe wrapper. If you're not happy with iframes, you can also grab older embed code.

My bad. I was under the impression it was off all together.

I thought the same a couple of months ago until someone pointed out that some forums allow it.

I believe there is a Vbulletin tweak that can made such that YouTube videos can be embedded even when html is turned off. I remember an issue a while back where a spammer embedded redirect code that sent everyone that opened the thread to their website. Yikes.

I think you can embed in Genral Garage discussion, but (frustratingly, for this guy) can not in the Garage Gallery.
