Are you doing it right?

1. Visit the YouTube video you wish to display
2. Click on the SHARE button
3. Click the EMBED button
4. Copy the code snippet (but only after selecting the options  below).

 

Now turn to the Nabble Message box.

1. Click the TIPS button
2. Click the EMBED TAGS button (This enters "<nabble_embed></nabble_embed>" in your message)
3. Between the  tags paste in the code from YouTube.



The result should be something like this:

oh ok so you always have to embed the link.

BTW what about the feeds, how does that work?  When i click on the atom feeds, i get stuff like this

I confess I don't use feeds myself so I am not as expert as I should be, but it looks like you're not adding the feed link to your feed reader software.

[andy]

how do i set this up so my users can read my blog on their Google feed reader?

You don't do anything!

They log into Google Feed Reader, and paste in the feed they want into the "Add a Subscription" box

They get the feed they want ("Topics only" or "Topics and replies") by copying the link to the feed.

Simple! :-)

[andy]

that is the problem i don't have a link to the feed, all i get is bunch code.

You didn't read what I wrote!

You don't do anything! Nabble has done it all for you!

Note: Your visitors won't click on the link they will copy it (i.e. they right-click over it and choose "Copy link location" - or whatever their browser calls that option).

They then paste that copied URL into the "Add a subscription" box in the Google Reader.

[andy]

I understand what you are saying but when I click on the button feeds > topic only

I get bunch code like I show you above in the first post, not a url to add to google reader.

I am not trying to piss you off, but i just don't see any link to the feed. :<

That's why I told you NOT to click that link! Read again:

Trust your visitors! If they are going to use Feeds they will know what to do!
Those not used to feeds can use OPTIONS > SUBSCRIBE VIA EMAIL and get the latest posts via email instead.

[andy]

Sorry about that i miss read the copy link part, I am new to this.  I am too use to other blogs feed system where you click on the button and a option box pop up for you to choose your feed reader.  Do you think that will be available in the future? 

Thank you for all your trouble, sorry for all the misunderstanding.
