Topic Wiki

If your video is not embedding, see if your link starts with "http:" - if it does, change it to "https:" and it will work.

If a video isn't embedded you should assume it may be inappropriate for some people.

How do I embed a Youtube video?
Simply post the YouTube URL.
Alternately (actually, this may no longer work):
Click the "youtube" button on the second row on the furthermost left side.
You will now have the words: [youtube][/youtube] in your editor.
Now, copy and paste the youtube video id (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0&x=y) in between the middle brackets in order for it to look like this:
    [youtube]oHg5SJYRHA0[/youtube]
and leave out this part of the link: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v="

Or you can paste the YouTube link, highlight it, and then click on the "YouTube" button. This will encase the link in the youtube tags,
Now just click "post" and you're done!


How can I search if a video has been posted here before?
This is not foolproof, but it's a good start.
Search for the youtube ID (youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0)

Don't know how to link directly to the video that's part of this article.

Notice how at about 1:40 my friend Rabbi Abergel says מדינת ארץ ישראל which is not transcribed as such in the subtitles.

He's there as a Rabbi of the local community, not as a "Chabad Rabbi" (though I believe he is on the list of the Shluchim), so he gets to skirt the ציונות issue elegantly. If it were an official Chabad Shul, it would be more problematic, but since it is not, he has no problem, and he uses a phrase that the Rebbe once used "מדינת ארץ ישראל", to avoid referring to the Zionist entity directly.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Moral of the story: when meeting with the VP, always have a prayer prepared. If that's absolutely not an option, at least pic a chapter which you know by heart.

There are quite a few videos about this out there, but I think this one is also interesting.
