I have a huge 2011 Fit Sport maintenance log. There are a lot of youtube links that take a massive amount of real estate because they seem to be converted to huge clickable thumbnail images.

Is there a way to just keep the youtube links that are clickable (but don't show the huge youtube thumbnail)? That would make the thread much easier to navigate.

 

Instead of just putting the youtube URL, wrap it in a URL tag

Take a look at this link: https://www.mikeholt.com/instructor_forum/ubbcode.html

Or on computer browser, there is the link button. Put the youtube link in that and it'll do it automagically for you.

 

Thanks for the detailed response @2Rismo2

Unfortunately I still can't get this to work. I spent 30 minutes trying but nothing seemed to work. Maybe I just don't understand the instructions.

Would you mind providing some more basic recommendations? Hate to be that guy but I just can't get this.

 

No worries and happy to help. The following code will generate the link below:
[url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vah5Gd47xDc]Youtube video[/url]

Youtube video

Just substitute your link to the video.

 

Thanks @2Rismo2 .

Still can't get it to work. I give up. I just put url in quotes and wrote video title next to that. On occasion it works but usually does not. People can copy and paste the link in a new browser tab if they care enough to. . .
