So you found or created a great video and want to use it on your page.
Good news! You don't have to download it or have the actual video file, you can simply embed the content directly to your page using the i-frame embed link.
With an embed link, a piece of the other website content is shown on your own page, without moving the content itself.
*We recommend to use Google Chrome to ensure an optimal experience when using AppicalNow.
So how do you embed a video?
First - getting your video:
Step 1. Go to the video page you would like to use, and click 'share'.
Step 2. In the sharing menu that opens, choose 'Embed'.
Step 3. Click on 'Copy' to copy the full embed code into your clipboard.
Notice the embed options!
Un-checking the first box will make sure your video ends without leading to other videos or showing other unrelated video suggestions.

Step 3. Select the desired language and give your page a title.
Step 4. In the text field, fill in the text you wish to accompany the embedded content. Let the viewer know what they are about to see!
Step 5. Paste the embed code (that you copied from YouTube) in the text field that show 'Paste your code here'.

In the case the suggested videos do still show even though you disabled them, paste this code &rel=0 right after the YouTube link part inside the long embed code, between the link’s last letter and the “ sign (before the word frame in the embed code)
