Working on the next unit in the media chapter of my WordPress training. This unit covers embedding content from sharing sites such as YouTube. The first technique involves simply pasting the url of a page supporting oEmbed. If the site supports oEmbed, then WordPress can automatically handle the embed.
To implement this first method, I will embed a video from one of my current favorite musical acts. Below is Jason Isbell performing “Children of Children”, an autobiographical recounting of his childhood, as recorded by WGBH in Boston.
If the site you are looking to embed does not support oEmbed, then you can insert the content manually. To demonstrate this, I will embed a Google map showing the location of the House of Blues in Boston, where the above video was filmed. Never been there.
Yay, I passed the quiz!
