NEW POSTING FUNCTIONS

Post: # 1730027Post BackFromUSA »

When you start a new topic or use the post editor (not the quick reply) you now have a huge range of options for your post, using icons that should be familiar to users of WORD software, plus some other features including being able to embed sound clips and video. The full guide is here: app.php/help/bbcode#f6r0

FOR THOSE JUST INTERESTED IN EMBEDDING VIDEO

On the far right end of the second toolbar, there is what looks like a play button icon.

Click it and [bbvideo][/bbvideo] will appear.

Pick a video you want to embed in your post (such as youtube.com).

Copy the URL from the other site you want to embed and paste it in between the [bbvideo][/bbvideo] e.g.

[bbvideo]the.full.link.goes.here[/bbvideo]



You might want to add additional content to the posting window to describe the content.

Press the Preview button if you want to make sure it worked.

Press the Submit button when you are ready to post.

The rendered post should contain the embedded video.


AwayInUSA no longer ... have based myself back in Melbourne for a decade of Saintsational Success (with regular trips back to the USA)
