You can post as many links as you wish in your posts and if you would like to embed YouTube videos use the following code:

[youtube] PLACE VIDEO URL HERE [/youtube]

That will effectively make YouTube videos show up in your post. We encourage the sharing of information relevant to learning how to screen print and videos are a big part of that.

If you have any other questions regarding this feature or embedding other videos, feel free to ask here.

Embeding is often not functional. I am working on this. The forum needs an update. Please let me know when you experience difficulties.

I have finally fixed the YouTube bug which was preventing the embedding of YouTube videos. The standard YT code and process of adding embedded videos should work now. Simply click the VIDEO button above the text box when editing your text and place the standard YouTube URL in between the code that appears when you click the button. Your cursor should automatically be between these when you click. DO NOT USE the YouTube button. Use only the VIDEO button.

Try using the original YT URL which does not have the “youtu.be” part. The URL should look like this:

https://www.youtube.com/watchXXXXXXXXXX

So you will place the URL between these:

phpBB [video]


Make sure to deactivate the hyperlink if it ends up active in the text body. Please try it out and let me know if there are any issues with this. Make sure to preview your post to see if the code is working. I paid some money to write a script to fix it ;)
