  I want to embed a youtube video starting from a specific time – I tried a few different versions of embed code and they all keep starting from the beginning. Regardless of what I enter, when I hit update it always changes the coding to:

  [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b9rNRPC9mtQ&feature=youtu.be&t=15m2s%5D

  and then the video starts from time 0:0

  help?

  To make a Youtube video start from a specific point, you write the shortcode this way:

  [youtube=URL HERE&start=NUMBER HERE]

  (Number = how many seconds from beginning of video.)
