In this post, we'll explain how to embed video in WordPress in a flash. Let's get started!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-add-video-to-wordpress-pages-or-posts\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Add_Video_to_WordPress_Pages_or_Posts\"><\/span><strong>How to Add Video to WordPress Pages or Posts<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best things about WordPress is its \u201cauto-embed\u201d feature. This cool feature allows you to embed videos automatically in a blog post, so you never have to worry about finding and adding the video embed code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you're writing or editing your post or page, find the place within your post or page where you'd like to add the video. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then copy and paste in the video URL. WordPress' auto-embed feature will capture that video's embed code and embed the video for you just like that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-video.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"912\" height=\"237\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-video.png\" alt=\"Embed a video using a URL in WordPress\" class=\"wp-image-26975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-video.png 912w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-video-300x78.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-video-768x200.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 912px) 100vw, 912px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You can even edit the width and alignment of the video and add a caption in the WordPress editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind: This feature ONLY works with allow-listed video services, such as YouTube, Vimeo, Amazon, and Hulu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a video service that isn't allow-listed, you'll have to manually embed the video's code into your post or page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also embed a YouTube video using the YouTube insert feature in WordPress:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"364\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-1024x364.png\" alt=\"embed a youtube video in wordpress\" class=\"wp-image-28078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-1024x364.png 1024w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-768x273.png 768w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-1536x546.png 1536w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/add-youtube-video-2048x728.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply enter the video's URL, and click Embed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HELPFUL TIP:<\/strong> If you want to make sure \u201crelated videos\u201d don't show up at the end of your video, try adding <strong><em>?rel=0<\/em><\/strong> to the end of the URL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-embed-a-video-in-a-page-s-sidebar\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Embed_A_Video_In_A_Pages_Sidebar\"><\/span><strong>How To Embed A Video In A Page's Sidebar<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Embedding a video in your WordPress membership site's sidebar may seem complicated, but it's a lot easier than you think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In your WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance > Widgets. You'll then find the sidebar area where you want your video to appear. Drag the \u201cText\u201d widget to the sidebar area of your choice and paste the video URL in the content section. Just as it did in the blog post, WordPress will automatically embed the video in your sidebar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W-1024x452.png\" alt=\"WordPress Appearance Widgets\" class=\"wp-image-26976\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W-1024x452.png 1024w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W-300x132.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W-768x339.png 768w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Widgets-\u2039-My-W.png 1137w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress will also generate a preview of how the video will look in your sidebar so you can see it before it goes live. If you're happy with the way your video looks, click Save, and you're all set!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"final-thoughts\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Thoughts\"><\/span><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, embedding a video in your membership site's blog post, page, or sidebar is not nearly as difficult as it may seem, especially with WordPress' auto-embed feature. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This feature also works if you're still using the WordPress Classic Editor. The only difference in Classic Editor is that you can't make any significant adjustments to the post like you would if you were using the <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/gutenberg-and-memberpress-how-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Gutenberg editor<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block-mp-button-wrap\">\n\t<a id=\"button-block_620abde765917\" href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/how-to-make-a-video-membership-site\/\"  target=\"_blank\" class=\"button button-blue center\">READ >> How to Make a Video Membership Site<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you liked this article, be sure subscribe in the <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/go\/box\" title=\"Box affiliate link\" class=\"pretty-link-keyword\"rel=\"nofollow \" target=\"_blank\">box<\/a> up to the right!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adding videos to your site can build engagement and keep visitors coming back to your site.
