I've noticed this with some of my friends, they get a new URL because it gives them the option to in the edit section or something, but why is it that some are equipped with the option and others aren't?

And then paste in the rest of your URL after for example:

Your full URL could be

We only require this portion:

Over 500 Subscribers

If you have over 500 subscribers you can find out about eligibility for a custom URL by visiting here:



Once you have your Custom Username/URL simply enter it, there is no need to check any boxes to make it link to your /c/myusername type URL.

Old Legacy URLs (/user/)

If you have a legacy username/URL you need check the /User/ option and enter your YouTube username.
  • Paste it into the box where it says YouTube Username.
  • Click Save Changes.
Now you have it attached to all of your messages here at YTtalk :)

Thank you!
 
This does not work for me, I keep getting some sort of error telling me to enter a value that matches the required format. (I have a custom URL).
 
I feel like an absolute idiot for just reading this and figuring that I could have it say "FurryGurus". I knew how the checkbox "channel" and "user" worked, didn't know checking neither was also an option... :facepalm2::facepalm2::facepalm2::facepalm2::facepalm2:
 
I tried this and it says 'please enter a value that matches the required format' I copied my URL when i was on my channel, is that was i was supposed to do?
