don't use the youtu.be URL, it needs to be the www.youtube.com form

Maggie, you need to put the link in the little narrow box, not in the main text - but make sure the link is correct, there's a spelling mistake in your OP Media URL: http://youtu.be/1O6p84lYw7s

^^ interesting - with the mistake, the link jumps out of the Youtube box into the main text! Media URL: http://youtube/1O6p84lYw7s

Tisk, I'm giving up :)

youtu.be is what you get if you click on the share button under the video but do not use that - you can either copy the address from the address bar in your browser or if you are using Firefox and the Tab Max Plus add-on (which is great for other tab controls anyway) a 'Copy Tab URL' is included in the tab menu.

1. Pasting into the main box works with most urls (sometimes there are errors, we're not sure why)

2. The "Enter youtube link here" box only works for full urls (not the "share" ones YouTube offer - which are deisgned for twitter.)

is it this particular link that is proving difficult ? If so, try again at another one until you get the hang of it.

Thanks all, I will keep trying - did it one so I can do it again!
