How can I display a YouTube video on my website without redirecting to YouTube?
I was checking out a game’s official site and noticed something cool. When you click their ‘Watch Trailer’ button, the video pops up right there on the page. It doesn’t take you to YouTube or anything.
I’m trying to figure out how to do this on my own site. Is there a special trick to it? Maybe some kind of code or plugin?
I’m pretty new to web design, so any tips would be super helpful. I’ve tried a few things, but I can’t seem to get it working quite right.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Embedding a YouTube video on your webpage is straightforward. You can use the iframe method by navigating to the video, selecting ‘Share’, then ‘Embed’ on YouTube, and copying the provided HTML code into your webpage. You can adjust the iframe’s attributes such as width, height, autoplay, or controls to fit your needs. This method works well even with content management systems like WordPress, often enhanced by plugins for additional customization and responsive design.
hey there! i’ve done this before. it’s actually pretty simple. you just need to use youtube’s embed code. go to the video, click ‘share’, then ‘embed’. copy that code and paste it into your html where u want the video. it’ll show up right on your page, no redirects!
