Embedding a YouTube Video

Not a support query, just a tip. If you need to embed a YouTube video as an external link, as per the guidance:

Depending on the structure of your YT link, you’ll get either a blank overlay (with a dev tools error of ‘can’t display…in a frame because it set ‘X-Frame-Options’ to ‘sameorigin’).

Or your browser may try to save the swf file instead.

You need to structure your link as follows: https://www.youtube.com/embed/abcd1234/

@arne – you might want to update your demo example on the above page. Thanks for a great plugin too 🙂
