How to embed YouTube videos into Magento
No comments · Posted by Ryan in Magento user guides and help
Are you wanting to embed a YouTube video into a CMS Page, Static Block or Product Description in Magento?
YouTube allows you to embed videos into your website/blog by using an iframe (Which is an inline frame, used to embed another document within the current HTML document) The problem with this is Magento’s default WYSIWYG editor doesn’t allow the iframe or embed tag. To get around this you need to use YouTube’s old embed code, Which you can get by following these steps:
On the YouTube Video:
1. Click Share (located underneath the video)
2. Click Embed
3. Make sure the ‘Use old embed code’ option is ticked
4. Then simply copy the code given and paste it into Magento (make sure you press show/hide editor first to view the code)
