Embed a CivicMedia Video onto a Page

Prev Next

This article will show you how to embed a video from a CivicMedia Channel onto a page on your site.

Important Notes:

  • The Embed Code for CivicMedia videos will always need to be placed in a Custom HTML widget to render properly.

  • If the Embed Code was added into an Editor Widget, you will have to re-copy the code from the module. The code cannot be copied from the Editor Widget as the editor strips the needed code.
