I used to be able to embed youtube videos and now I can't…as well as slideshow
-
Hello,
I have been using wordpress as my classroom blog since the beginning of the year and just in the past two days there have been big changes that are frustrating me to bits! :S
First, I can’t upload pictures all at once anymore to create a slideshow- did something change?
Second, I can’t seem to get a youtube video embedded into my post as I did before. Now, only the link shows up instead of the whole video.So frustrated… please help!! Thank you!!!

It looks like you’ve actually created a link for the video. You just need to paste the URL into the editor.

As for uploading images all at once, please make sure that you have Flash installed: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/

Hello,
Thank you for the quick reply, I had to create the link so my students could easily access the youtube video and not have to paste it into a new tab. Please see now on the same post, that I have put the URL and no video pops up- only the URL.
As for the slideshow, I am updating the Adobe Flash but I have not had any problems before, why all of a sudden has it changed?
Thanks again for responding.. I am so desperate! :)

Embedding on that video was disabled by the owner, so you’ll have to link it in this case.
Were you able to upload multiple images after updating Flash?

YAY!!!
Thank you so much, I was able to upload multiple pictures after (YYAAYYY!).
As for the youtube video, I thought maybe it was the author having disabled the embedding but I tried another video and it also didn’t work. Maybe I just had bad luck :(In any case, I feel MUCH MORE positive now!
Thanks so much!!!
