Instead of just posting a link (which a lot of folks overlook), you can use the simple "YouTube" button above the text box you type in to embed the video.

1. Start a "New Post"
2. Find the "YouTube" code button located just above the box you type in...it is below "Bold" and Italic."
3. Click "YouTube."
4. Copy the Long Link from the YouTube video you wish to share.
-To do this, simply find the video...Below it you will see "Share."
-Click "Share"
-The box that comes up with a url highlighted is the "short link." We do not want to copy that one.
-Below the highlighted url is a drop down arrow with "Options"
-Select "Long Link"
-Copy the "Long Link" with CTRL+C
--You can also copy the ink from the address bar, but stop after the video link, usually before "&"
5. Paste your "Long Link" between the YouTube bars [YouTube]Paste here[/YouTube]
6. Click "Preview."
7. If you like what you see, click "Submit."
