After observing a few requests by many on how to embed YouTube Videos on F|A Forums, I thought I would write a tutorial to showcase and guide users on how to do that. I admit I faced the same issue before when I was a new user in this forum and was submitting my software in the Downloads Section. I manage to figure it out after trying out some commonly used BBCodes. Before I continue with the tutorial, I would like to point out one important point that users should take note of when embedding videos from Video Hosting Websites on F|A Forums - Users should not abuse this feature by embedding many videos in one post. This would be considered spamming which is not acceptable.

2. Copy your YouTube Video Link.

3. Add the Media BBCode to your YouTube Video Link.

Method 3 :

You can just paste the YouTube Video url directly in your post. You do not have to link it.

I hope this guide helps you. Thank you.
