{{Note|The Youtube videos repository does not currently work - see  MDL-50176 for a workaround to get it working for 2.7. Note that you can stll add Youtube videos with the embed code.}}

The Youtube repository allows users to search from within the text editor for a youtube video which they can then embed without the need for any coding.  The option needs to be enabled  by the administrator before it is available for teachers and students. ''NOTE: If the Youtube website is blocked in your institution then the videos will not display.''

==Enabling the Youtube repository==

*Go to ''Administration>Site administration>Plugins>Repositories>Manage Repositories'';
*Select from the drop down next to Youtube "Enabled and visible";
*If desired,click on "Settings" and give Youtube a customised name (not essential)

==Searching for and embedding a video from Youtube==
*Youtube videos can be searched for and embedded anywhere there is the text editor, for example a label or a page.
*Before this works, you must enable the multimedia filters under '' Administration>Site administration/Plugins/Filters/Manage Filters''. Set Multimedia Plugins to "On" and make sure youtube is selected under Settings (it should be by default).
*Within a course you must ensure in ''Course administration>Filters'' that multimedia are ON.
*Click the filmstrip, "Moodle media icon" in the editor:
