OK, I am a computer idiot and don't know how to post a link from a you tube video.

[BigmanPigman]

I just learned how to send an attachment...DUH! How do I post a video clip, an article, etc.? Do I need to"link" them? I don't know how to link either or if that is even related to a link. I have a Samsung tablet which has a mind of its own and creates words that I never even typed and if I don't proofread a zillion times I look like an illiterate moron. I would like to post The Castaways song and video "Liar, Liar..." appropriate and cool/funny.

1. All you have to do

is copy and paste the URL. Once you type "Post my reply" the video will appear.

2. What is a URL? How do I cut and paste?

I need step by steps here...I told you I am a novice/moron.

this on DU as an example https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=post&forum=1095&pid=18787

3. here's how-

Down below your youtube that you want to post click on share. Then below that you will see a url highlighted in blue. RIGHT CLICK on that highlighted url and then click COPY. Then come here and paste it in your post where you want it to appear.

To paste it here RIGHT CLICK. You will see options to choose from. Choose PASTE.

6. What is the difference between right and left clicks if I have a touchscreen and not a mouse?

Do I just click on it once and my tablet will figure it out?

7. I imagine you just click on share as before and then press the highlighted text and the option to

copy should pop up. The battery on my tablet is dead or I would check that for you, sorry. Maybe another tablet user can help.


-Okay I just touched my screen instead of using my mouse and the copy option popped up. So yes it works like that.

4. I think I might be able to help.

I don't know the terminology, though.

I keep links to many YouTube videos of music I enjoy. When I want to post them on different websites like here or FaceBook, I get the video up on my screen.

Up at the top of the page, there is a line of text (sort of) that I highlight. Just click on it. Then I right click to Copy that line of text. Then I just carry it to wherever I want to post it.

And there it is.

I hope this helps!
