I've always found it easiest to highlight the YouTube URL, copy it (ctrl-C), then paste it into whatever post you want, (ctrl-V).
Works every time.
(Btw, if you never knew this, the "paste" function, ctrl-V, stands for "moVe." They had to use something else for "paste" since ctrl-P was already taken for "print."
)

There isn't a "paste" button. You just put the cursor where you want the content to go, hold down the control key and push the V. Should work every time, unless the content you're trying to copy and paste is somehow locked or secured.

I hardly use the keyboard, just to type, everything I do is from the mouse. right click on the URL, left click on the page to be posted to, the window pops up and hit the paste word. At least thats what I used to do, Now I have to click on the source icon then left click and it pastes. Hey it works I'm good
