Including a video on a post

We learnt how to add a video to a post, when we did our little video clips introducing ourselves. So we thought we might be able to help you out with some instructions. This is how we did ours.

Take a short video clip on the I-pad
Tap on the upload icon which is a square with an arrow.
You will be given a choice of what you want to use to upload. We used Youtube (we had already downloaded the Youtube (free) app on the I-pad.
Fill in the title and a description and then click on Publish in the top right hand corner.
Once the video has been published to Youtube, you can then click on share which gives you an embed code.
Copy the embed code.
Open up your blog post and click on insert video in the top menu bar
Choose 'From Youtube' and paste the embed code in to the box and search
The video will come up and you can click on it and then click on Select in bottom left.
The video will then come up in your post.

Hope this helps you to get your video uploaded on to our blog.

We have also started to add labels, so that each time we make a post we can add a label or two. We are hoping to learn how to do things from each other as we go, so we have added the label 'How to...'
