I'm new to this forum Can you please give me a example on how to post a youtube video? thanks I so use just clicking a youtube icon on some forum I'm in!
The easiest way to learn BB code is to quote someone, press the 'quote' button at the top right corner of this post to see how it's done.


Basically, take the youtube URL (for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlBiLNN1NhQ) and reduce it to just "youtube=UNIQUE-JUMBLE-OF-LETTERS", with [] around it like any BB-code, then post and you're done.

Use this guide instead if you have any other queries. It's more up-to-date and easier to follow.

It's a blue box at the top of the screen, underneath the title for the forum:

Click it and you will be taken to the page for creating new threads.

This thread should probably be stickied. I've had a hard time finding how to work certain codes before as well.

I didn't realize it had been unstuck. This is the updated guide I use:
