Video not showing up after posting

Post by Edisonfan »

I recently posted a video on here, but only the link showed up and not the video. Even though I used the YouTube button!

Unless it is a blocked video (any that you can't copy, if that feature exists in yt...) it should work!
Even if you simply select the complete address from the address bar in your browser, and copy, it should work.
And also in the yt video, there is the share symbol in the menu bar below the video.
Maybe you have something deactivated in your browser that doesn't allow to copy in the clipboard...

I have posted videos on here before, and never had a problem!
