IwasBornAsVentus 396 Posted September 25, 2014 I want to be able to put a video in my post with it's thumbnail instead of just a link. So anyone could just play the video in my post instead of go to the link. I know it can work but I have no idea how any help would be appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Demyx. 10,064 Posted September 25, 2014 On youtube you need the share link under the video. Just post that link and you should be good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I know Ive tried it but when I upload it only the link appears but not the thumbnail so you haft to click on the link to see the video in my post. I don't know if I have to add codes or anything for the thumbnail to show up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weedanort 8,786 Posted September 25, 2014 (edited) I always do it like this: - Copy the link from the "Share" Button (Assuming it's Youtube) - Press the "Link" button, paste the link there - Add [media ] at the begging of the URL, and add [/media ] at the end of the URL It should work (Don't add the spaces on the media thingys, or else it won't work, it should all be united ) Edited September 25, 2014 by Weedanort Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shard the Gentleman 2,891 Posted September 25, 2014 If you can't get that to work, go to the button next to "Font" and click Media. Then you can paste the Youtube link there. Had to do that sometimes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
