I can't figure out how to do it. I'm sure I've seen it done on ATVriders but how??

I can link to the vid just fine by I want it embedded in the post.

thanks

click mouse and highlight the embed link then control c to cut it and then control v to paste in your post.

Sweet, thanks. I swear that's what I tried before and it didn't work--just showed the HTML. :confused:

Thanks!

Ok, now this seems strange. Obviously that worked just fine in my last post. But when I do the exact same thing in a post I've got in the dune sub-forum it won't show up. It just shows the HTML code.

Mods or admin, is HTML only allowed in the Open sub-forum??
