    One of you is talking about posting on the forum and the other about editing a QRZ page.

    @VK5OHR is talking about the forum. @M6VMO you are taking about editing your QRZ page.
     
    VK5OHR and KP4SX like this.

    I am asking for help on the forum regarding posting a video on my QRZ page via the editor.

    Yeah, I know. Are you trying to post a video or a short?

    @WOAQ, exactly.
    And the problem is that every time I embed a YT video, whether it is am ordinary video or a short, when the Play button is clicked,my QRZ page goes to Youtube and plays the video there, rather than showing it on my QRZ page, it is really driving me mad. It doesn't even open it in a new tab.

    I don't see a video on your page but I believe that some videos do not allow embedding and that may be the designed behavior. I know when I post a video on YouTube it asks if I want to allow embedding.

    No, I removed it from my page.
    But thank you for the tip about allowing to embed, I'll check that out.
    EDIT: Yes it is set to allow embedding. Same behaviour.
    I've left the videoon my page now so you can see for yourself.
    Thank you.

    So do this: put a video back on your page and let US see what it does.

    Maybe you've got a cache thing going on or something.

    Granted, I'm not a programmer or IT guy for QRZ so have no idea what the "software rules" are for such things. But at least if you have something there to look at, those of us watching this thread can see how it LOOKS TO US

    Youtube is a commercial entity. I wonder if using their property here without permission is legal? Could be expensive (shrug).

    It's ok to embed videos if they allow it.

    Yes, they do allow it, and besides, it is one of my own videos which I filmed myself.
