Changing The Physical Size Of A Youtube Video

By Alan Saunders, 9 years ago. Last reply by Andrew Misplon, 9 years ago.

I am using the Pagebuilder plugin with the Influence theme. If I add a Youtube video using the embedded video (pb) widget. I am using the share link that I get from Youtube. The physical size of the video on the website is huge. How do I make it smaller? Thanks.

    Hi Alan

    Influence is using Fitvids to handle video rendering on different screen sizes. Fitvids is pushing your videos to match the container width. You could try installing the following child theme to de-register Fitvids:

    You can install that ZIP from Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload Theme. Test it out first. If it works you’ll need to redo all your Customizer and Appearance > Menus settings.

    Alternatively you could use Page Builder to create a row with three columns and insert the video into the middle column.
