Remote videos
Remote videos URLs can be added to the Media Library and then embedded in Basic Pages by using the WYSIWYG bar.
If you just want to upload a remote video to your site without embedding it on a page then you can do that within the Media Library section.
Learn more on how to add media to the media library within our documentation guide.
First you need to upload your video to YouTube, for example, and copy the video URL. Next you would add that URL to the Media Library as a Remote Video.
To embed that video into a web page, place your cursor where you want the video to appear, select the 'Insert Media' icon from the WYSIWYG toolbar, then select the remote video from the Media Library. Size and display options include full-screen, small left-justified, small centered, and small right-justified. Text will wrap around the small sized video embeds.
