Hi Guys,

Is it possible to link to a youtube video on the forum without showing a preview? I tried changing the [Video] tag to [URL] but it keeps overwriting it.

 

Seems if I put the link through a URL shortener first it shows up as a link. So that is good.

 

Hi,

You just want to show the URL? Thanks.

Bob

 

Hi Bob,

I would just like to show text.

For example Click here would link to a you tube video instead of showing a preview on the thread. Would also prefer not to have it display the link in the thread, just the supplied text as the normal url' links are treated on this forum.

So far it only works when I take the youtube link, run it through a URL shortner, and then use that supplied link on the forum.

 

Understood, I'm checking.

Bob
