Oops.

Tried to post a YouTube link, but I’m not a tech wizard. How do you embed the video instead of copy pasting the link? Laugh at me.. I don’t care.

Well, I certainly won't be laughing, as I always say I'm Dinosaur Jay where anything electronic is involved!

Sooo.... go to this specific link: https://permies.com/t/30463/post-YouTube-video-Permies#654149
And look at Jocelyn's pretty pictures and instructions and see if it goes better!

Then consider book-marking this thread: https://permies.com/w/how-permies-works

It has all sorts of useful links to instructional threads.

If you've still got questions, post them here and someone who isn't a Dinosaur will come along and offer help!

What is the link?

Some youtube videos cannot Embed because the owner turned it off, or it's to a play list, or for kids, or...

Some take extra steps like shorts.

And other reasons can get in the way.

Thanks Dinosaur Jay.. haha! Just call me Caveman Ted. Funny story.. as a kid I was enrolled in GATE (gifted and talented education), and was put in a school that was one of the first the have computers in the classroom. My parents scoffed at the idea of home computers, and computers in general, so I developed my interests in punk rock and skateboarding instead.. showed them! Rejected all computing and new tech until just a couple of years ago, so I’m way behind. Thanks for the helpful hints!

p.s.: still not a big fan of the emerging technocracy, but have tried to limit its use, and find ways to alley oop it to my benefit.. like Permies!

Wow.. the YouTube button. So easy. I guess slowing down, paying attention, and exploring the available options can save the stupid questions. Thanks all the same.
