How to Fix YouTube Views and โ€œLiveโ€ Links So They Work Inside Skool ๐ŸŽฅ
If your YouTube link has /live/ in it, then Skoolโ€™s "Add Video" embed wonโ€™t recognize it.
You have to edit the link manually
Hereโ€™s the quick fix:
1๏ธโƒฃ Remove the tracking at the end
Everything after the ? has to go.
Example: select the ?si=uQkTU31r8KwH5xAo โ†’ delete
2๏ธโƒฃ Replace /live/ with /watch?v=
3๏ธโƒฃ Add &views to help your YouTube watch hours
NOTE:
If the link is short form ( youtu.be )
Then use ?views like this:
SUBSCRIBE:
Know this:
There can only be one ? in an URL string
URL string?
A URL string is the full web address your browser uses to find something online.
Itโ€™s made of different parts, each telling the internet where to go and what to load.
Example URL:
Breakdown:
https:// โ†’ the protocol (how your browser connects)
โ†’ the domain (the website youโ€™re visiting)
/watch โ†’ the path (the page or feature you want on that site)
?v=4sDseNDaJvE โ†’ the query string (extra information โ€” here, which video to play)
&views โ†’ an additional parameter (more optional info the site can use)
Think of a URL string like a full set of directions:
Website โ†’ Page โ†’ Specific content โ†’ Extra instructions
Thatโ€™s all it is โ€” a structured address that tells the internet exactly what to fetch.
Got it? ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ
