Great news β€” you can absolutely use YouTube videos across your WithMe creator hub! Whether you're building out a course, spicing up your community, or showcasing content on your landing page, YouTube embeds are a powerful way to deliver video without uploading files directly.

Let's break down exactly where YouTube videos work, what formats are supported, and how to add them. πŸ‘‡

πŸŽ₯ How to Embed a YouTube Video

On Landing Pages

  1. Navigate to the area you'd like to embed the YouTube Video and you'll find "embed" option.

  2. Select media format as "Video" (if required) and click on "embed"

  3. Paste your full YouTube video URL (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=...).

  4. The video will appear as an embedded player β€” preview it to make sure it looks right!

In Membership Posts & Course Lessons

  1. Open the post or lesson editor.

  2. Click the + button or use the embed option in the toolbar.

Paste your YouTube URL and hit enter.

  1. Your video will embed inline β€” your members can watch it right there without leaving the page! πŸŽ‰

In Community Posts

  1. Create a new community post.

  2. Use the embed option and paste your YouTube link.

  3. Your community members will see the video player directly in the feed!


πŸ’‘ Tips for the Best Experience

  • Use standard YouTube links β€” not Shorts URLs (youtube.com/shorts/...). Shorts aren't supported in any embed area.

  • Check your video's privacy settings β€” videos set to "Private" on YouTube won't play when embedded. Use "Public" or "Unlisted" instead.

  • Direct uploads work everywhere too! If you'd rather host the video on WithMe, you can upload files directly in any of the areas listed above. This keeps everything self-contained on your hub.

  • Preview before publishing β€” take 30 seconds to preview your page or post and make sure the video plays correctly. Testing takes just a few minutes β€” but ensures your audience has a smooth, polished experience from day one. βœ…
