  Hello everyone! I have been posting a lot of youtube links on my blog, but recently (2 days ago) the blog suddenly stopped showing direct links to youtube (where I can watch the videos directly on the blog and not have to copy and paste the link on a separate tab to watch it). Can anyone help me? Thanks!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Yeah, we suddenly need to use the short codes for YouTube again within the blog posts … I’ve had to go back on my blog and put the youtube embed links back inside the shortcodes again.

  sorry everyone for continuing this link! I’m new to the forum and after I ask a question, and i check the next day it is no longer on page 1 (i don’t even seen any links to bring me to the second or third page of the forum). Anyway, my link is : http://beewushu.wordpress.com Also, I don’t know what a short code is and I think the youtube embed link is the in one of the tabs under the original youtube video right? Thanks!

  You can always find all the threads you posted in by clicking on the word Member under your name.

  There are three ways to put a youtube video in your blog. Apparently only the shortcode method works right now. You can find instructions here:

  What are the WordPress shortcodes?
