Video upload

I'm trying to upload a short 40 second video. It takes ages then an error message in red shows up saying oops no token received or something like that. Anything I can do?

Hi Dtp1979. Currently we only support embedding of Youtube videos, anything else you can post a link to but not attach/embed I'm afraid. It is something we plan to remedy in the future but for now those are the options.

I've tried that. Link is pasted but it still can't be viewed?

Ok so let's say you want to embed this video from YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2hxU4UG3dA

Click on the YouTube button in the editor to add YouTube tags to your post like this [noparse]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=

[/noparse].

Copy the video ID (everything after v= in the URL) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2hxU4UG3dA and paste it between the tags to embed the video like this

One other thing to note - make sure your video is public and not private on YouTube.
