posting a video

i am writing this text in the "Compose" field. i am setting up to tell you how to post a video. So, here goes:

1.) Find the video you want to share,
2.) Select the "share" option (often represented with this symbol "<").
3.) Copy the "Embed" code.
4.) Come to your post space, and switch to"HTML" field,'
5.) Paste in the code,
6.) Switch back to Compose mode to make changes to the layout (unless you are a code ninja, in which case, go for it).
7.). Publish!

Here is an example, offered lovingly by Alex:

The code looks like this: <iframe width="420" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Cft0pr7lIWA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> ...

BUT WAIT. YOU ARE STILL IN THE COMPOSE FIELD. Go paste that text (code) into the HTML field, then pop back over to Compose to see how it looks and address layout. YOU CAN DO IT, and if you, we'll all be blessed (again, thank you, Alex!) with this:


Have fun. Write thoughtfully ... and consider adding an image or video to your post (see the BLOG ideas post, below).
