  I have been trying to put a youtube video into my blog the standard way. I copied the url from youtube and added a [ before and a ] after. I then try to insert it into the blog under “from Url” and there is no way to insert it into the blog. You used to have a button to insert it into the blog. What happened? Can you help me?

  I use the youtube [shortcode] and it works every time. Note the lack of spacing in the [brackets]? Here’s the guide.
  Here’s the shortcode for the video in your latest post as an example:
  [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-smLDVTOeHM]
