    Hi. I recorded a short video hoping for one of the experienced guys to offer me tips on honing. I posted it into my Facebook group. Am I able to copy/link that video into a forum post, please? Thank you.

    Copy the address of the video from the other site. Click on the button in the post dialogue called "Media", paste the address in the box. Hope it works for you, that's how I do it.

    I don't know why, but it isn't working. I get an error message that the url can't be embedded as media.

    Facebook may not like crosslinking. They have to pay the freight to serve the file, but it's getting viewed from other sites. I don't, but maybe Third Party Hosting? Google offers free cloud storage, and I'd hope you could link from there. Next option is open a YouTube account.
