HELP

OK. I need some help here.
I must be getting senile.
I have been trying to add a You Tube video of some music I wished to share with you.

I have signed up, done all the things I thought I needed to do....
How do I actually get the clip onto the blog??

You know I am just procrastinating from having to think about Christmas. haha.

When you are on YouTube looking at the video on the right hand side of the page runs a ribbon of code that says Embed. Cut and paste that code to your blog.

(You're supposed to be able to share the video right to your blog using the Share button, but I can only sometimes get that to work.)

Does that help?

Pbbbt. You're about as far away from senile as a newborn.

I echo daysgoby's comment. I also have a picture of a typical YouTube page which shows exactly where one can find the code to embed:

Let me know if I can help.

daysgoby has pointed the way. Look forward to seeing that video. Have a blessed Christmas, meggie!

Yeah, the share button doesn't work so good.

As a matter of fact, I've never been able to make it work.

Meggie, when you are writing your post, you have to be in HTML mode. From YouTube, you copy he "embed" HTML and post it into your blog, right where you are typing it. I find it helps to cut and paste the HTML embed code into Word first, and then paste it into your blog post.

I haven't had time to visit all my favorite blogs lately, *sigh* so I want to wish you and your family

MERRY CHRISTMAS and Happy New Year.

Cheers,
Josie

Wish I could help but I can't. Haven't a clue have you been through blogger help centre? Anyway, back to Christmas - wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas
