wordpress question for the nerds

19Feb2007 Filed under: Internets Author: Wendy

I always find videos that I want to post for all of you to see and all that jazz, right? The only problem is that when I try to embed it like I want to into WordPress, it never works. Do any of you fine geeks that use WordPress know why?

I know I could look and I eventually will, but sometimes firsthand information is a lot better than some lame user guide.

And also I’m lazy, but that’s probably no secret by now.

hrmmm. I have no problem posting youtube videos. I wonder if it’s your template.

Do you just cut and paste the code that youtube provides or whatever?

I think the new(er) version of WordPress supports this much easier. Do you have the latest version? I think, when you are using a version that supports it, you can just do this (without the spaces around the brackets):

Hmm. I don’t have the latest version. I’ll have to upgrade when I get home and see if that helps matters!
