Lately when I try to post a video from youtube I get a message saying #invalid link#

I am using this format
"
"
without the quotes.

What am I doing wrong?

You don't need the full URL.

Go back one screen, click on IMPORTANT BITS OF INFO and look for "How to PROPERLY use the YouTube link stuff on here..." :)

I tried that (everything after the question mark)and it still says #invalid youbube link#.

Did something change? Back when we all posting favorite songs, I just copied and pasted the whole URL. I'm not arguing just trying to be clear in my wee head.

If people follow the instructions I provided (linked in the stickied thread), you don't even need a full URL. :)

I'm still confused. If I only have to link the back half of the URL, why does the s in HTTPS even matter?
