  In the last few days I’ve been unable to embed videos onto the blog from YouTube. I try using the “Add Video” button and after I copy&paste the link, the video never shows up in my posting. Do I need an upgrade?

  You’ll need to use ‘http’ at the beginning of the YouTube URL rather than ‘https’. :)

  DAMNIT!! I knew it’d be something ridiculously easy like that!! Thanks so much Matt.

  So if a youtube video has the https on it, do I just remove the ‘s’?
