All video clips must be 420 related, except in the Off Topic Area, and embedded in the post. We wish to host all content on site, for the convenience of our members.

Videos may be added to your posts to educate and entertain. The process is easy once you get the hang of it.

Embed a Video
An Embed video is a file that is hosted on another website. You can link and stream a file that you or someone else has previously uploaded to one of the approved sites. These include: Vimeo & YouTube

Embed videos must only be Cannabis, Hemp or directly related to our mission. Non-420 videos may only be embed in our Off-Topic Forum. Please note that all videos must be appropriate and otherwise conform to our Forum Guidelines. Videos of people are discouraged for security reasons and videos of minors will be deleted without warning. If you still need help, please feel free to send an email to support@420magazine.com.

The first step is to find the video that you wish to embed and copy its url.

This will insert a code string in your post. Click/tap Preview and your video should be inserted in your post like the video below.


If you have any problems try the process again carefully.

If you're still having trouble, please contact The 420 Staff for further assistance.
 
You cannot embed a video from Instagram currently.

If you click on the three dots icon in the reply post menu bar, and then click Media from the drop down menu, you will see a list of approved sites from which videos can be embedded.

We would like to be more directly connected with the global Cannabis community, however there are some bad seeds who spoil the fun for the rest of us. Allowing links to social networking websites such as Instagram and Facebook has historically gotten out of hand due to product re-sellers and competitors spamming our forums with non sponsored products and attempting to recruit our members.

I hope the video I shared is proper and inserted correctly
 
Do videos have to b from another site/platform?
Yes.

Videos need to be embedded from our approved sites, Vimeo and YouTube.

Hosting videos takes an enormous amount of server space, which we currently simply don't have.
