    Obviously, click OK.

    The finished string of code will look like this:

    Did something change or am i just dense? I copied the share link into the video bar in the knife thread but it does not seem to embed?

    The problem is YouTube uses a slightly different link format with Shorts. P-F doesn't recognize the format as a valid YouTube link so doesn't embed it.

    For Shorts use this link:

    https://youtu.be/ with the video ID from the original link pasted right after that last forward slash.

    For instance in the link you posted:

    http://youtube.com/shorts/ZJIrdTI_KM...dpX2Vgo1buPzBF

    ZJIrdTI_KMQ (the bit after the forward slash and before the question mark) is the video ID to add to the end of the link.



    Hope that helps!
