How to add a video link?

Could somebody help me figure out how I add a Youtube video for a blog post so the video shows up instead of just the link? I made a few videos of making a wood form block and would like to put it in my blog on here.

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike,

First you want to get the embed code for your video from YouTube. Open you video and right below it, on the same line as the like and dislike buttons, you should see "About", "Share" and "Add To" options.

Click "Share" and right below this a barrage of social media logos will appear along with a link to the video. Right above the logos you will see other options like "Share This Video", "Embed" and "Email", of which you select "Embed".

Once you do that you just copy the code in the text box, it should look something like this:

<iframe width="475" height="267" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/yIRssbcUZbg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Then go back to your blog post and click the Media button on top of the WYSIWYG text editor in your blog post page (third from the top left, looks like a movie reel) and paste the embed code into the window that pops up.

That 'simple' ! :)
