9. At the screen where your Youtube video is played, take note of the URL of your web browser. It should look something like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSIURL5lbLQ -- what you want is everything after the "=" sign of the URL. In this sample, it'll be dSIURL5lbLQ. Highlight it and copy it to your clipboard; CTRL-C (Windows) or CMD-C (OSX).

** With the above sample, your BBCode should look like [YOUTUBE]dSIURL5lbLQ[ /YOUTUBE] ** I added an extra space in the tag so actual video isn't displayed to retain code sample. Yours shouldn't have any spaces.
13. You can preview your post with your included video to make sure you got everything correct before post submission.
Let me know should you have any issues! Enjoy...
