as you can see its not working for me again.....no video button yet?

Hi koiguy, the video button should be on the toolbar - between the twitter and quote buttons?

Can you try visiting the youtube page of the video, click "share" under the video and then tick the "long link" box? That may do the trick.

Ok now I was able to get to this thread only listed under New Content but all others are not listed w/ new posts.

the button between twitter and quotes is "media"...no video button.

I'll have a look and see what I can do to see how the VNC button works . When you click on it, what options are lit up in purple on the left hand column?

Koiguy what browser are you using.

Ian I don't have a problem with IE but it does not work with chrome.

For some reason it looks like the URL has dots in it, so it's not a proper URL:

http://www.youtube.c...h/?v=Z8iqEzJ5-gE

Can you try pasting the URL in to the media button box and see if it has dots in it when pasting it (although don't copy the link from above, as it will be the same malformed URL - it should be the following:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8iqEzJ5-gE

I have been having that issue too ian, usually if I go in and out a few time it will finally show new content, sometimes I have to go to the main forum then back to new content to get it to work. Other times its goes to new members then to new content after another click.

It looks like the button defaults to show new content from the area that you're currently in - so I'll change this now to force it to use only the forums . Can you give it a whirl now and see if that did the trick?

Hmmm this is strange... what options are highlighted on the left hand side of the "view new content" page? Does the list appear totally empty?

Yeah i was clicking through post reading them not replying I knew there were about 5 more and they went away.
Maybe the system thought i had read them was moving pretty fast. Shows new content now, so will just let you know if happens again, just a little weird, no biggy, sometimes I can back arrow and click down to the next post to read.
