   The blog I need help with is hipsterapproved.wordpress.com.

   Please see here so you know how to use the youtube shortcode >

   If you wish to embed with the URL instead then Make sure the YouTube link is not hyperlinked. > http://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/youtube/#troubleshooting

   It looked like they may have been hyper-linked because the letters were blue. So I click on the break a link icon, but it's still not working. Before they were clickable links, now they are just black letters.

   Should I add the "[" and "]" at the beginning and end?

   Thanks!
