How to embed a video in WordPress

1. Make sure the video is horizontal and posted to any youtube account so it opens in youtube in public settings.
2. Open the video so it’s open and ready to play in youtube and copy the exact url link.
3. Paste the url link directly in the place you want it on the word press, and it should automatically appear as a video image ready to play when people visit the page. Refresh the page after updating to check if it worked.

Note: It may not always work.
