Updated 2026-11-02

01What it does

  • As its own section on the page it is placed on (the home page unless you choose another).

02What you need

  • Video URL
  • Section title (optional)

03Connect it

  1. On YouTube, open the video → Share → copy the link (youtube.com/watch?v=… or youtu.be/…).
  2. In Studio → ⋯ → Widgets → YouTube Embed, switch it on.
  3. Paste it into "Video URL" and optionally set a "Section title".
  4. Save, then Publish — widgets go live with your next publish, not before.

04Check it works

  • The video plays inside your live site.

05If it does not work

  • "Video unavailable" — The video is private, or the owner turned off embedding (YouTube Studio → video → Details → Allow embedding).
  • "Video URL" is rejected — Shorts and playlist links aren't accepted. Use a single video's watch link.
