Hey.
Anyone know how to embed a google or youtube vid in your blog post? I tried the "wordpress method" and it doesn't work. I've also tried google's embed code and that doesn't work either.
Thanks for the help!

You should be able to use the "wordpress method"...
The format is something like this:
[youtube="http://youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxx"]
or
[youtube]http://youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxx[/youtube]
or
[youtube="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxx"]
or
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxx[/youtube]Posted 4 years ago # -
Update on this for non-US users.
Youtube now uses country-specific subdomains for some user accounts. For the UK, this is http://UK.youtube.com. So when you get your video's URL, it might be in this format:
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=z4HltoPi0P0
To get this to display on sweat365.com, you need to delete the "uk." from the address. So to display the video for the above example, you'd enter
[youtube="http://youtube.com/watch?v=z4HltoPi0P0"]
in the body of your post.

Slightly tougher question now - how does it work with video files from vimeo.com?

Karl, send me an example of a vimeo page (hosted on vimeo) and I'll look into it.

vimeo now supported...
use theses formats:
[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/1523526[/vimeo] [vimeo="http://vimeo.com/1523526"]Posted 4 years ago # -
Also, you can use viddler if you use the "wordpress.com" style of embedding... which has a format similar to this:
[viddler id=6601beba&w=437&h=288]Posted 4 years ago # -
with vimeo, you need to strip the www out of the URL. So to display the film from http://www.vimeo.com/4725583, you'd type
[vimeo="http://vimeo.com/4725583"]
