YouTube Videos

The YouTube Video feature allows you to add YouTube video content and display it on your site. In order to add YouTube content, the YouTube Video feature must be enabled on the website. If you do not currently have the YouTube Video feature on your site but would like to have it set up, please contact webmaster@appstate.edu.

View a sample page that includes YouTube video content.

Add YouTube Video Content

From the Admin menu, select Content - Add content - YouTube Video.

Enter a Title for your video. 

Enter the Video ID.

The Video ID is the code at the end of the URL, so for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzZqDYvGHLU, the ID is CzZqDYvGHLU.

Click Save to create the YouTube Video.

Embed YouTube Video

After you have saved the YouTube video, click on the Edit tab. It will create a node/##, like this, https://sitename.appstate.edu/node/##

Note the number at the end of the URL.

Go to the page where you want the video to appear and click the Edit tab. Put your cursor where you want the video to appear and type the nid:## within double brackets - for example, see screenshot below. This tells Drupal to embed node 123 on this page.
