Add a YouTube Video to My Profile Page

Go into the "Edit Your Details" page: Edit Your Details
and put the following values into the 3 fields:

1. YouTube ID - this is the last part of the link in your internet browser's address box, look for the v= and copy the code after it - "v=exbam38wrkc", copy the "exbam38wrkc" part and put that into the YouTube ID field

2. YouTube Title - put in a title for the video

3. YouTube Autoplay - If you want it to start playing when your profile page is loaded, put "&autoplay=1" into this field, otherwise you can leave this field empty.

Check my profile page to see what it looks like: http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/members/mike.html

No.. what happens is after I upload the code, an then click save changes, I go to my profile page and the only thing showing in the youtube box is the title of the song that I had typed in. But no video at all..
does it take awhile before the video is uploaded to our profile page? Or does it show up right after we add it?

Nothing shows up in the youtube video box.

Hi Shawnie
thanks for the help, my problem was adding the v= to the page.
Yep, the first video was from Alicia Keys and I guess she disables the embedded code, probably for copyright reasons. So I found another version and added it. Not as powerful a message as the original video I wanted.. but great just the same IMO lol....
Now... on to a background photo hehe....

Maybe it's just no longer available on You Tube....search for it there, see what comes up.

I had one that youtube wouldn't let me display (said it was no longer available) too and just got a different link.

Actually it was the same video you're trying to link to. U2 - vertigo, awesome song.
