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! =)

Great points. I have been using YouTube videos in my articles for some time. One question though… Why didn’t you use a YouTube video in your article about YouTube videos?

Really enjoyed your article on how to put videos in articles. Although I already know how to do this, I think it will be very helpful to those that don’t.
Thanks for sharing!

That was detailed instructions for anyone. Youtube is a great source of information that is not tapped as easily as textual information.

Looks like you like that song a lot.
