Are you looking to add a YouTube video to your website built on Webflow? Embedding a YouTube video is a great way to engage your audience and enhance the visual appeal of your site. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of embedding a YouTube video in Webflow.
Step 1: Find the YouTube Video
Before we can embed a YouTube video, we need to find the video’s URL. You can find the URL by visiting YouTube and searching for the desired video. Once you have found the video, click on it to open it in a new tab.
Step 2: Copy the Video URL
With the YouTube video open in a new tab, copy the URL from the address bar at the top of your browser. The URL should look something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIDEO_ID. Make sure to copy the entire URL.
Step 3: Go to Webflow Editor
In order to embed a YouTube video, you need to access your Webflow site’s editor. Log in to your Webflow account and navigate to your project’s editor by selecting it from your dashboard.
Step 4: Add an Embed Element
In the Webflow editor, navigate to the page where you want to embed the YouTube video. Click on the section or container where you want the video to appear, then drag and drop an Embed element onto that section or container.
Step 5: Paste Video URL
Inside the Embed element, locate the code box or field where you can input custom code. Paste the YouTube video URL that you copied earlier into this code box.
Step 6: Adjust Video Settings
Webflow allows you to customize the appearance and behavior of the embedded YouTube video. You can access these settings by selecting the Embed element and navigating to its options panel in the Webflow editor. Here, you can adjust settings such as autoplay, video controls, and video dimensions.
Step 7: Publish Your Changes
Once you are satisfied with the placement and settings of your embedded YouTube video, it’s time to publish your changes. Click on the Publish button in the top-right corner of the Webflow editor to make your website live with the embedded video.
