    When you click into the Reply field (above), you will be taken to this area to compose your post.

     

    To embed a YouTube or Vimeo video in your post, click on the corresponding icons in the editor menu.


    Clicking on either video icon will produce a search field for that application which will allow you to search for and choose the video that you would like to embed in the post you are composing.  


    Clicking on the Embed button by the search result you would like to embed in your post will allow you to choose how large it will appear in your post. Clicking on your choice will automatically insert the video into your post.


    If you choose a video and then wish to remove it from your post, you can simply do so by backspacing over the video when you are in edit mode.
