    I have the exact same question. When I simply copy and past the YouTube URL into a normal page, then the video shows up. HOWEVER, when I copy and copy and past the URL into the page builder it simply show the URL on the page as a link. I need the video to show up as a video, not a link. Please advice. Thanks, John

    the ironic answer is to paste the url into the page builder – advised by the tech.

    Hello, TheHipGurusGuide, I am not sure sure if you read the two descriptions above thoroughly but that is exactly what we were doing that is not working. If you go to the home page of congohc.org and scroll down, you will see the video url text simply showing up. I tried to paste it into the “embed a video” widget a “text” widget, and even paste it directly into the page builder. However, the theme does not allow a simple copy and paste into the edit areas of the page builder. Please help, John

    John, I see.
    Another tip the tech suggested was to turn off other plugins in case they are interfering with the video showing.
    All the best…
