Hello. Looking through the detail pages for your various templates, it appears that it was with "Citadel" that you began including a "video" particle. Does this mean that it is not possible to embed a YouTube within earlier templates? Or is it just that the video particle makes the process easier? In other systems, I have copied HTML embed-code from YouTube to place a video within a web page. Can I do this in Joomla when using pre-Citadel RocketTheme templates? If so, what is the recommended procedure?
Thank you.

you can embed video in any template. you just copy the embed code from youtube and paste it into a customhtml particle or module.

All the video particle does is create a div that contains the embed script, and make configuring the options within that script easier by bringing it to a form.
You could theoretically paste the youtube embed code anywhere you want on your website. A custom Html particle is our preferred method, but you could just as well do it within a Joomla module or WordPress Widget. Just create the module/widget position and assign it. - Last Edit: 6 years 9 months ago by Ryan M Pierson.
