  I am having a problem embedding youtube videos and it doesnt seem browser related. I am trying to embed youtube videos in my posts/pages and am having no luck.

  When I use the upload/insert feature to add a video, and choose “from url”, I get a hyperlink appear on my page. See http://www.freethenation.com/about .

  And when I manually type in the code, the actual code shows up on the page. See http://www.freethenation.com/test .

  Ive used this feature before on a different blog and I never had any problems. Am i doing something wrong? Thank you very much in advance!

  Please look closely at the footer of your theme. Do you see “Powered by WordPress”? Click the link and where does it take you to? I clicked it and it took me to wordpress.org.

  This is the wordpress.com support forum and we cannot help you with that blog here at all. You need to post to the correct forum for your software and that’s here > http://wordpress.org/support/
