  I know that there’s a topic on this already which has been marked [resolved]. Just thought I’de start another one to inform those responsible that many including myself are still having the problem of Youtube not showing up at all(blank with a little red ‘X’ on the corner)

  I was just over at YouTube, and they ARE having some issues over there. Weird code strings hanging in the middle of pages, etc. No word on whether they’re what’s causing the issues over here, though.

  I’ve embedded my youtube vid on a static webpage on my website and it works. It just doesn’t work with WordPress, so I have a hard time believing it’s a YouTube issue.

  If you want to compare:

  The Problem page:

  The No Problem page:

  I’m no HTML genius, but it seems that the media embedding limitations on WordPress are killing our video links.

  I can see stray code in my link as my WordPress editor page opens, but I can’t remove it. This also tells me it’s a WordPress deal.

  This is not cool.

  “This is not cool”
  No, but it’s not life-threatening either :)

  See the main sticky.
