I am new in workoing with word press.A month ago I started a blog and my plan is to have most of my articles related to a video that has been uploaded to youtube already.Basically I want to have something,that facebook uses for sharing videos-you can watch the video directly from the site although that video has been provided by another site!:confused:

    In YouTube, below the video there is an "Add To" button. press that. then click the "embed" button.

    There is the code that you need to copy and paste into your Wordpress Site...

    Then just create a post. Make sure that your Wordpress editor is in HTML mode and not in the visual mode. Just paste the code into your editor (in HTML mode)

    That should do it if the video maker has allowed embedding..

    Thank you guys!I used the way with the HTML code and it worked perfect.Just a little correction-I found the code located inside the "share" button below the video file instead inside the "Add to" button.

    You can also use JWPlayer or FlowPlayer to embed videos. These plugins allow more customization and auto-play and branding of the videos.

    Use the plugin above. That plays in a player like on my site - example below:


    Example First




    ...or you can take a look at the instructions in the "readme" file that came in the plugin folder you downloaded. Follow the "installation" instructions provided in the plugin directory (where you went to click on the link to download the plugin).

    Another good plugin for this issue is Viper's Video Quicktags. Makes embedding stuff easy
