How To Post A Video- (Tutorial)

[THE GOB-FATHER]

Here is a step by step process on how to post a video on the Racks & Spurs Club website:



1) Determine which video on www.youtube.com you'd like to share on this message board.

2) Once you've identified which video you'd like to put within one of your posts here on the site, click on that video there at YouTube and then once the video has loaded you'll need to note what the url address of that particular video is. This is VERY important:

The URL address:

3) Next, the important part you'll want to take note of that URL is the very last part that comes after the equals sign "=" Which is indicated in the pic below (between the red lines)

Note between the red lines:

-This is the part you will need to embed the video within the site.

The Final Processes:

An Illustration for your reference:

#1 is the video ID from YouTube (as defined previously as the part in the URL address on YouTube that is between the two red lines in the first post illustration of this thread). You'll have needed to have copied this section of the URL and pasted it within the message you are posting.

Then...

#2 is where you'll have to highlight that specific ID that you just pasted here and then click the button that #2 is pointing to. That is the YouTube conversion button. And what it does is convert the url you added to your post to a recognizable code that the site will recognize and convert to video once posted.

#3 shows the brackets that will be placed outside of the video ID that the YouTube conversion button you just clicked. At this point you are ready to submit the video for viewing.

Yep... it's that simple!


Have fun and happy posting!
