1: go to YouTube
2: select video
3. click on the EMBED button to select the code and copy
4. go to WideFetish and start a new post or reply to a post
5. paste the entire code into the window. You will delete this later. You are just using this paste to get the size and URL.
5a: it will look like this:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
6. note the size of the video; something like this:
<object width="425" height="344">7. click the flash icon, and it will say: [ flash=200,200][/flash ]
8: take out the 200,200 and put in the numbers from your selected video
9. now, strip the url out of the big paste for your video. In this case it is: http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0
10. Paste the url inbetween the Flash brackets {flash=425,344}
URL GOES IN HERE {/flash}
11. Finished embed will look like this, but with no spaces at the end brackets:
[ flash=425,344]http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0[/flash ]
12. With no spaces on the end brackets it should work just like this:
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=013: If you want, over at YouTube you can click on CUSTOMIZE (blue icon) to the right of the embed url, and select SHOW BORDER, then copy the URL. This will make the embed string look like this:
< object width="445" height="364"><param name="movie" value="
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="445" height="364"></embed></object >
Pull out the part of the string that is bold above. Note that it has some new code ending in "&border=1". Select it as before and paste it into your flash tags. Or, you could always just add the
&border=1 to the end of your standard string.
It should look now like this:
http://www.youtube.com/v/24wAS-ZPcJQ&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&border=114. Select your initial big fat paste of the YouTube URL and delete it.
15. Hit PREVIEW to see it it works. If it doesn't, make sure the size is correct and there are no "s in the url and no spaces anywhere in the string.
16. Hit post
