how do you add videos to your posts?

how do you add videos to your posts?

Just above the text box where you type is an icon that looks like 2 links of a chain with a green + sign on it. Hover your mouse over this icon and it will show "Link" Click it and you should get a pop-up that asks for a URL; put the URL of the YouTube video in the URL: field; it's smart enough to change the http:// to https:// if it's in the URL you paste it.

This results in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ

But now that I think about it, that likely won't embed the video, just puts a link to the video. I tried a bunch of things.... no joy (see random notes below....)

Maybe the original poster can tell us how?



---- notes of no interest -----
I wonder if using the "Embed" URL from the YouTube page will make it embed a player:

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I'll have to post this to see the results (am I missing the "Preview" button?)

[Edit] So the <iframe> tag is not supported... maybe a "Code"? input (icon looks like a pair of angle brackets "<>"; I chose Javascript as the language and pasted in the link by pressing the "Share" icon and then selecting the "Embed" code it offered. Another save to see what it looks like...

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/dQw4w9WgXcQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Hmmm.. .also tried with "Language" set to "PHP/autodetect" (or similar); no better. And "None"; no better.
