Template:Yt/doc
From Roll20 Wiki
This is a documentation subpage for Yt. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
{{yt.be}}
template works better
Template for linking to youtube pages/videos/profiles, shows the YT logo next to the link so it's clear it goes outside the wiki.
The template provides the youtube.com/
part of the url, so you need to copy the rest of the url after it. it uses the youtube.com/
instead of youtu.be/
so that links to profiles & playlists also work, not just links to videos. Leave a space after the url and then write the title(or similar), before closing the template. If you give it no name, the link will say [1]
instead.
Example:
Roll20 Community Roundtable March 2021
{{yt|watch?v=y7TiougaEJc Roll20 Community Roundtable March 2021}}
For links with the youtu.be/
format, you can use the {{yt.be}}
template instead, or add watch?v=
in front of the string of characters.
Example:
You have the link https://youtu.be/xKXpKIiB5WM
to the "5 Roll20 Crash Course - Rolling Dice"-video, then the correct result will be {{yt|watch?v=xKXpKIiB5WM Roll20 Crash Course - Rolling Dice}}
, resulting in this: Roll20 Crash Course - Rolling Dice
Normal YT links if you don't use the template: Roll20 Crash course
