Today I was checking the recent comments on my published work and came across a fellow writer mentioning that he would like to add music to his work, but didn’t know how. At first, I was just going to email the instructions to him, but then I realized that there are probably other Triond users who are currently experiencing this same problem. Because of this, I decided to write a how-to article to answer his question.

It’s a simple process and will add great value to your work!

Step 1:

(Pictures by author)

In the above picture, notice that the cursor has highlighted the button that says “Embed a YouTube video”. Click this button.

Step 2:

After you click the button, this window will appear. Go to YouTube and choose the video of your choice. Copy the http address.

Step 3:

Paste the http address for the YouTube video of your choice as shown. Once you have completed this step, click the “Embed Video” button.

Step 4:

After you click the button the http address for the YouTube video of your choice will appear in the format shown. Continue writing the rest of your article/poem as you would do so regularly. After your work has been published the YouTube video you embedded will appear in your work like shown in the next step.

Step 5:

(added because of comment #2 – good point!)

So go ahead, start adding those YouTube videos – Happy publishing! =)
