  2. Click on the filmstrip icon in your WYSIWYG tool bar. This opens a new pop up window.

  3.  This is the "Insert/Edit video" option where you can copy the share code in the Source field. You can also paste the embed code in the Embed tab.


    Example: Share code from YouTube looks like this: https://youtu.be/VtMZ-fGoDLY
