when i post a video url it approves it then saves it to a link....

For vídeos to appear in the vídeos section of a club, two things need to happen:

1) fanpop needs to support video embedding from that site

and

2) That site needs to support embedding for that particular video.

In this case, it sounds like it is failing on #2: YouTube is not allowing embedding for the video, which is becoming mais and mais common for popular videos. This makes a sort of business sense, as YouTube is a google web site, and google makes its primary money through advertising. So mais and mais often, YouTube vídeos that are likely to have a lot of views (music video premieres, movie trailers, et cetera) are "YouTube exclusives" so that google will get the ad revenue. It is a shame that they don't make this obvious to the user before he/she tries to embed the video elsewhere. When this happens, you may want to consider using another video site which passes #1, above, such as dailymotion. So far, at least, dailymotion has far fewer "dailymotion exclusives" than YouTube does.

It's not an issue with fanpop normally ..its the host site not allowing embedding on any other sites but kinda forcing the user to watch on the original site.

p.s. youtube is the devil...whats that shit aboot needing a google account to have a youtube account!? WTF!? and the annoying copyrights crap where you can SEE the thumbnail but then when you click on it you get an error if its not to be viewed in your country THEN DONT SHOW ME THE FUCKING RESULT i HATE youtube and google with a passion. lord knows why i still use their search..i should really start using bing or something /rant and huge tangent
