Embed videos

[Desoto61]

How do you embed YouTube videos in a post? I've seen Gordon do it in a few posts but I played with it last night and had no luck. Is it an admin thing only, or am I just doing something wrong?

I even copied the embed code from one of Gordon's posts and it looked just like the YouTube code from the video I was trying to post, but his shows a video and mine is just text.

When you post a message, you can add links or attachments using the icons above the message box. These icons look like paper clips. Only certain types of image files with a maximum size limit are allowed for upload; this information is listed in the attachment key in the attachment popup window. Videos can be linked to by providing a URL using the insert link icon. Just copy and paste the link into the link popup window.

Here is a youtube video link:

Thanks, but I'm familiar with posting the link, the one I wasn't sure about was actually embedding the video window like in http://www.powerwagonadvertiser.com/...ad.php?t=14965? Or is that an admin only sort of thing?
