In this screencast I'll show you how to embed YouTube and Vimeo videos into your WordPress posts. There's no need to copy and paste code snippets and position them anymore, thanks to a technology called oEmbed (sometimes called auto embed).

WordPress parses the URL to your videos and adds the code needed to display those automatically - it even adjusts the width (if supported by your theme).

oEmbed works with a variety of services, and while I'm at it I'll show you how to embed items from YouTube, Vimeo, Flickr and Twitter. For a full list of supported services take a look at this: https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds
