This is what Google AI had to say:

To embed a YouTube video on Vanilla Forums, simply copy the video URL from YouTube, paste it directly into the forum editor, and the platform's "Smart Embed" feature will automatically embed the video; you don't need to manually generate embed code as the system handles it automatically when pasting a valid YouTube link.

Key steps:
Get the YouTube video URL:
Go to the YouTube video you want to embed and copy its URL from the address bar.

Paste into Vanilla Forums editor:
Open your Vanilla Forums post editor, place your cursor where you want the video to appear, and paste the YouTube URL.

Automatic embed:
Vanilla Forums will automatically recognize the YouTube link and embed the video player within your post.

Important points to consider:
Smart Embed feature:
This automatic embedding functionality is made possible by Vanilla Forums' "Smart Embed" feature, which works for various social media content, including YouTube videos.

No need for embed code:
Unlike some other platforms, you don't need to copy and paste a separate embed code from YouTube when using Vanilla Forums.

Check for compatibility:
Ensure your Vanilla Forums settings allow for video embedding and that the YouTube video you want to embed is set to allow embedding on its settings page.

After all of that... literally just post the link ^ (but not in the HTML, just on it's own, in the comment box)
