YouTube Block

What is the YouTube Video block?

The YouTube Video block embeds a YouTube video into the page — with playback options (autoplay, mute, loop, hide controls) and four width settings. The aspect ratio is locked at 16:9.

Any YouTube URL works — watch URLs, share URLs (youtu.be/...), shorts URLs, or embed URLs are all accepted. For autoplay, set muted: true as well; browsers block unmuted autoplay.

Each example below uses the same demo video at a different width so you can see the relative sizes. Hover over any example for the "How to set this up" button.
