# WordPress and Vidalytics

## Embed your Vidalytics videos in your WordPress site

WordPress is one of the most popular website builders, but embedding a video can vary depending on the type of WordPress environment you're using. In this guide, we’ll cover the best methods for embedding your Vidalytics video within WordPress.

### **Understanding WordPress Versions**

There are two main versions of WordPress:

- **WordPress.org** – The fully customizable, self-hosted version of WordPress. It supports themes, plugins, and requires paid hosting.
- **WordPress.com** – A free, blog-style version of WordPress with limited themes and no plugin support unless upgraded to a paid plan. Paid versions may support plugins.

Most Vidalytics users work with **WordPress.org**, the self-hosted version, as it offers greater flexibility.

### **Compatibility with Vidalytics**

- **WordPress.org** – Fully compatible with Vidalytics.
- **Free WordPress.com** – **Not compatible**, as it does not allow custom embed code.
- **Paid WordPress.com** – May be compatible by enabling user permissions using a plugin like [Leira Roles](https://wordpress.com/plugins/leira-roles). If using such a plugin, be sure to enable the `unfiltered_html` capability for yourself and trusted users before embedding your video.

### **Embedding a Vidalytics Video in WordPress**

To embed your Vidalytics video within WordPress, follow these steps:

1. Open your WordPress **Site Editor**.
2. Select the **Custom HTML** block and drag it into the section where you want your video to appear.
3. Copy the **embed code** from Vidalytics.
4. Paste the embed code into the **Custom HTML** block in WordPress.
5. Save your changes, and your video is ready to go! 🚀

### **Using oEmbed on WordPress**

If you prefer using oEmbed, follow these steps:

1\. Add the following line to your **theme’s functions.php** file:

2\. In the WordPress **editor**, search for the **Embed block**.
