Embedding+Videos+by+Aanchal

Hi Some of the class members asked me what plugin did I use for uploading videos in my website. Well I didn't. You can add a video directly to your drupal.

1. Get the embedded code. For instance. Go to Youtube. Under the video click on Share > Embed and then copy that code.

2. Go to your website. Navigate to Structure > Blocks > Add Block. Fill in the block name and description. And Paste the embedded code of the Youtube Video into 'Block Body'. Change the text format from Filtered HTML to Full HTML.

3. Under Region settings, Go to you default theme and choose where do you want the video to appear. And hit Save p.s. If you want the video to show on one page then under "Show block on specific pages" check ' Only the listed pages ' and add the extended code of the page where you want it appear. If you want it to appear on your front page then type and hit save.

Hope this helps. It just made my life easier. Goodluck! – Aanchal

Hi Aanchal, thanks for sharing this. Directly embedding a video is a lot faster than building a workflow for videos (e.g. using the media module and say, the vimeo sub-module) – GJS.
