How to put YouTube on your Profile Page 1 Attachment(s) As many of you know, Admin has allowed us to have U-tube on our profile page. Way to go Admin! A few people have asked me how to do this, and maybe this will help clarify how to post a U-Tube Video on your profile page. After you find a U-Tube video you would like to use, go to "User CP", and then choose "Edit you Details." At the bottom of the page it will say, "YouTube URL" , this is where you must paste the U-tube address, or URL, but it needs to be slightly changed before posting. You have to do two things; first you have to totally remove the word "watch?" Secondly, you need to replace the "=" with a slash like this "/". Here's a sample of an address: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFCnvH2E-6A After you remove the word "watch?" and replace the "=" with a "/". You will have this address: http://www.youtube.com/v/oFCnvH2E-6A. Then just title the U-tube and put "&autoplay=1" in the slot provided if you want it to automatically play when someone opens your page. Press "Save Changes" and you're all set. See the picture for more details. |

Question.............?????????? I put a You Tube video/song on my profile page for the Christmas holiday & it worked fine. But then one day, after it had been on my page for a long while, it disappeared. :confused: Wondering why this happened........are they only good to use for a certain time or did I do something wrong? Curious about this before I try to post another one for Valentines day |

For those still having trouble, another way to explain this, you remove "watch?v=" and replace with "v/". Don't use quotation marks. One more thing, although you use the "URL" and not the "embed" address for the profile pages, make sure that the "embed" address does not say, "no embedding allowed" this means that you won't be able to post it on the Yorkietalk profile pages, no matter what you do to the address. |
Thank you Nacy1999 for this information. :D |

I have a question can videos only be put on our profile page once downloaded to utube? I have a video that I had down loaded to Dropbox.com. from my camera to my computer to dropshots. and I cant find the vidoe that I had saved on cd. Id really like to have this video put on my profile page but Im at a loss at how to do it, I did resave it to my computer from that site but now that I have it I get an error saying I cant open it.that it needs to know what program made it. I did the video from my camera. so I dont know. Im on dial up so that sucks even more. heres the video Im trying to use. DropShots.com |

It just dawned on my U-tube has that music swap, and you could probably just add music at U-tube, if you want. |
