I mostly go on the treehouse from my phone. How is it that one would post a video?
 
Specifically, their Embed code. You click "Share", then "Embed" (and as a courtesy, I always make sure under EMBED OPTIONS
Show suggested videos when the video finishes is Unchecked..) Then you can copy & paste the code they give you:

would look like this:

If’n It’s that vid I sent you Mike, make sure Caleb aka kidarborist is credited. All of that vid is from the last day.
 
This thread should be made a "stickie", in my opinion, somewhere prominent, like the announcements section, maybe. That is for Butch to decide. I infrequently feel the need to post a video link, and like many others here, I forget the procedure in between times. Embedding of video should really happen as an automated process in the background any time anyone tries to drop a link to video into a post. Short of that, it should not be like trying to find a needle in a haystack to find the instructions on how to do this task. The tutorial should be sitting near the top, in a really obvious place. Maybe it already is, and I somehow managed to miss it. In which case, I apologize for ranting.

Edit: Thank you, ForestKeepers, for posting the instructions in this thread.

I think for some reason this thread is no longer "stickied", and it's being driven further and further down the page. Not sure if it's a glitch, or if Butch changed his mind about keeping it "stickied". I just came looking for it because of an animated gif I was trying to embed, and had a tough time finding it just now.

I knew it had been stickied, and I thought it was in the "Announcements" subheading, but when I did not see it listed as stickied there, I started going through every other subheading looking for it, with no success, obviously. Also, the instructions here did not seem to work for my attempt at embedding from Imgur, for some reason. It may be that I'm just having an off day, cognitively speaking.

Anyway, I was hoping Butch could chime in with an answer about the "stickie" status of this thread. Thanks in advance for your time and attention.

Just an update - you no longer need to go through the hassle of embedding videos. Simply copy the page URL and paste it in your post... BAM!!!
 
To easy cool. I didnt even get share link. Just the link at top.
