    Default Youtube and widget

    Hello, I have just uploaded my first video to youtube and have then added a youtube widget to a page in my webdesigner program. When I follow the instructions all I get when I insert the widget is text that I input to describe the video. I don't get a placeholder. When I've inserted other videos from youtube it works perfectly. My video also works if I simply drag it onto my page. So, I think it is something in my youtube settings, but what? Any advice appreciated

    Welcome to TalkGraphics

    There is a step that is left out of the widget creation process, that is to copy the code to the clipboard, then press Insert. Did you do this step?

    The easiest way to do this that I know of is to go to the YouTube video, right click and select Copy Embed Code. Paste this code into the Placeholder HTML Code [BODY] window.
