    HOW TO: Embed videos on TGC

    Currently, the only supported video sharing website is YouTube. To embed a YouTube video in a post, use the following simple procedure:

    1. Obtain your video ID

      Your video ID is an 11-digit alphanumeric (combination of numbers 0-9, uppercase, and lowercase letters) string following the question mark in the video page URL (example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJ9d5i31grY&feature=related)

    2. Position the editing cursor where you would like the video to be inserted into your post

    3. Click the YouTube button at the top of the advanced message editor (must click "Go Advanced" for replies)

      ---> <---

    4. Paste your video ID in between the [YOUTUBE] tags that appear


    The resulting code will look something like this:
    Code:
    [Y0UTUBE]gJ9d5i31grY[/Y0UTUBE]
    ... and you will have a shiny YouTube video embedded in your post, viewable directly from the TGC website! Nifty!


    Changelog
    2011/10/24 - Upgraded to new embed code using <iframe> tag instead of <object>. Video size is now 640x360 instead of 425x355
