In the past I have successfully embedded YouTube videos in posts, such that you see the thumbnail and can watch the video on-page.

I’ve been trying to do this recently and I’m just seeing white space (but of the size associated with an embedded YT vid). I’m using Safari on an iPad, latest release build (I.e. not beta). Get the same white space using on my MacBook Pro, too.

Please can someone confirm the tags I should be using?

I had this problem on my PC and figured out it was something to do with the site automatically being set to "not secure"

Had a little lock with a yellow exclamation mark over it at the top in the address bar.

 

I set it to automatically trust the site and now all images/videos show up again. Not sure if you have something similar you can set on Safari, but it did the trick for me on Windows

I'm having the same with my laptop using Windows & I've recently changed to a different antivirus software which I thought may be causing the problem.

Thanks for that bit off info & I'll look at that when I get home tonight mate 👍

I'll try and take a screenshot of what I'm seeing if you get any troubles and see if you can pinpoint what I'm on about.

Thanks for the suggestion. I’m seeing a padlock on the address bar so it sounds like something a bit different. Useful to know people have experienced this on Windows.

I had to grant this site 'permission' to enable images/videos embedded on the site. Strange though because up until a week ago, I was having no problems. Maybe something changed on the site to label it as insecure, not sure how that works though to be honest.
