Default Did the posting procedure for youtube change?

JT, I used to post youtube videos easily... I'd add the yt before and after the code, or I could use the "wrap around" function. Always worked.

For some reason that doesnt work for me any more? I hit "edit" to see the language used in other successful youtube postings by members and they start with "URL" not yt and have a full address that I am not able to lift from youtube.

What changed?

A plugin was installed to help make posting YouTube videos easier. You no longer need to use the YT tag.

Simply paste the URL to the YouTube video and the software should automatically embed the YouTube video.
