Is there a new trick to posting youtube videos on RM? I’ve haven’t had a problem until recently.

What kind of problems are you having? I don't think anything has changed

It’s the youtube URL’s that are fucking w me. I used to copy/paste the YouTube address into the yt brackets and then delete everything before and including the =. It always worked.
Recently the YouTube addresses have multiple =‘s and it’s become more difficult to know what needs to be deleted from the URL.
I hope I’m making sense.

At youtube I go to the video I want to share. Then I click on Share and Copy.

On RM I open the thread I want to post in, and hit Post Reply.

Then I click on yt in the code line. In between the codes I post the link from youtube.

Here I remove https://youtu.be/ from the start and ?si=dylP5_8UMfADAWlJ from the back part. Always remove the ? and anything after it.

I revisited this thread for a helpful tutorial, as I had forgotten how to use this code since I last darkened RM’s door.
