    Okay – I played about and found that there are shortcodes provided in the template to embed video (and all other media) directly into posts. Works very well; I just never used shortcodes before so hadn’t checked this option out.

    Thanks again for all the help – hopefully I’ll be able to solve more of my own issues now.

    Best wishes,
    Nyima

    Ah… but then it over-rides the sizing when I insert a video elsewhere on the site using the advanced layout builder. I don’t know enough (or indeed anything!) about css to know how to overcome this.

    Perhaps there is a way to wrap the YouTube embed in some code to resize it (instead of adding css elsewhere) – doing this on an individual post basis wouldn’t be a big deal if that would work?

    What’s the best solution?

    Thanks again for your help,
    Nyima

    Thank you – worked like a charm (my first piece of custom css – a moving moment!)

    Sorry – thought it would be the same person replying : )

    The link is: lttmaths.com the post is: Constructions – shapes and solids with constant width

    I was after embedding the videos in blog posts rather than as a page element – though the Layout Builder method will be useful for other parts of my website.

    I have done this before on a WordPress.com site with no issues, so not sure what’s happening here?
    Thanks for your help,

    Thanks for your reply (sorry for the delay, but didn’t expect such a quick response)

    The post is up now on the home page.

    Thanks, Nyima
