Roblox does not allow new YouTube channel links

[VerticalPug (Vertical)]

Hello. I am one of three owners of a gamedev studio, and I cannot seem to get our YT channel to appear on our group links page. The only thing that works is removing the @ symbol, ergo, the link is unusable. YouTube requires the @; Roblox wants you to remove the @.

It’s broken, on 2nd August it stopped working, I’m pretty sure that’s why! and I don’t think there’s a fix.

[VerticalPug (Vertical)]

haha nice awesome

[S_iero]

Yeah lol, you can’t do anything until Roblox comes up with a fix, sad I know

[VerticalPug (Vertical)]

the woe, poor little corporation with 18.7bil USD market cap cannot support itself… it must be all the GREEDY INDIE DEVS draining the money out of these hard-working souls!
sucks but eh, idrc ig lol

[S_iero]

btw the problem isn’t the @, it’s literally just roblox being broken

[VerticalPug (Vertical)]

yeah, makes senseeeeeee (chars)

You can actually fix this by just using the channel ID rather than the channel handle.

For example, my channel ID is UCOvu3cMfIAbFi0FBl6Ig47A, this means my channel URL is youtube.com/channel/UCOvu3cMfIAbFi0FBl6Ig47A.

To locate your channel ID: PFP in corner → Settings → View Advanced Settings → Channel ID
This is how I found mine, anyway.

If this doesn’t work then it’s fully broken, but this worked for me in the past

that will not do anything, roblox is just broken

[drewbluewasabi (Drew)]

Works fine for me.

[drewbluewasabi (Drew)]

Add the https://

[S_iero]

i told you its broken since august 2nd

[drewbluewasabi (Drew)]

Well it work’s fine for me.
Also adding that they’ve never supported handles to my knowledge.

[S_iero]

because you either already had it added or its broken for some people

They are aware of the new YouTube handle not working. You can support the following feature requests:

We’ve filed a ticket for this issue and will start investigating! Thanks for flagging!

its broken because you use light theme jk

Don’t put the YouTube channel link. They will moderate you for “giving PII”. It happened to me before and I had to remove my channel link to prevent my account from being moderated.
