Groups can display their video clips in their portal using the power of YouTube:
- If you haven't done so already, sign up to YouTube
- Load one or more videos onto YouTube
- Once you have loaded them, view one of the loaded videos
- To link to your video or embed your video in the teamyell portal, you need a special "HTML command".
YouTube provides you with the HTML command you need, on the "View Video" page.
Copy the command you want into the clipboard.
- To provide a link to your video from the teamyell portal, you will need to copy the command that looks like this:
<a href="www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1zgFlCw8Aw" target="_blank" >video clip</a>
The command YouTube provides will replace "u1zgFlCw8Aw" with the unique name of your clip.
- To embed your video into the teamyell portal, you will need to copy the command that looks like this:
<object width="425" height="344">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/u1zgFlCw8Aw&fs=1"</param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/u1zgFlCw8Aw&fs=1"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
allowfullscreen="true"
width="425" height="344">
</embed>
</object>
The command YouTube provides will replace "u1zgFlCw8Aw" with the unique name of your clip.
- Once you have the command in the clipboard, use the Portal text editor to edit your portal page.
- Click on the "HTML" tag at the bottom to swap into "HTML command" view.
- Paste the HTML command into the body of the text editor, and save your changes.
