I read it to find out if you knew before me. I got lucky this time.

..... or you can copy the YouTube link to a new message and then highlight that and then click on the little icon that has the red musical note (insert media). THEN preview your post before posting it to make sure you have done it correctly .....

When copying Youtube stuff you need to removed the "s" from the http bit.....

if its a youtube video on FB then click to play the video

once you do this you'll get options down at the bottom right corner of the youtube

one of them says "youtube"

click on that and the video will open in youtube and from there grab the URL and past it in here

highlight the link and click on "media" at the top of this window

simples ;)

These ones aren't Youtubes and there are no options to any link other than to another Facebook page. If I use these links it doesn't show the video I want. It just spits out a random one.

Oh well.

Open it up - copy the URL in the top line, and post it using the last link before the tables link... fifth from the right. You have

Hyperlink

FTP link

Insert Image

Insert E-mail

Insert Media

Use Insert Media after you copy your URL on the video......

On the Youtube URL hit Control C - then on Ozpol hit Insert Media and hit Control V
