  Youtube videos are no longer embeding into posts – this has never been a problem before, I’ve always just pasted URLs as text and the videos have embedded automatically. Seems to have stopped working after the most recent WordPress update.

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

  Hi Carl!

  Could you point me to a post on your site where you’re having trouble? I scanned through several posts, but I didn’t see a YouTube video.

  Hi, thanks for getting back to me – it was on this page: http://somefilmsandstuff.com/2013/04/15/top-10-scariest-movie-moments/

  However reverting back to the old WordPress seems to have fixed it. Could be an issue with the upgrade?

  Hi Carl,

  It looks like you have embedded the YouTube videos correctly, and they seem to be working on the post you mention.

  Can you clarify what you mean by reverting back to the old WordPress? Are you referring to using the classic editor at somefilmsandstuff.wordpress.com/wp-admin as opposed to the new editor at wordpress.com/post?
