If the option Show video controls is disabled, Vimeo videos won't play on mobile devices. To play Vimeo videos on mobile devices, enable the options Show video controls or Autoplay 💡
Troubleshoot Unavailable YouTube Videos
If the YouTube video is unavailable, you're most likely using a shortened YouTube URL:https://youtu.be/video-id
To fix it, change the beginning of the URL to this:
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/video-id
For example:https://youtu.be/video-id
⬇️https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/video-id

Add Videos From a Local Device
To add a video from your computer, you first need to upload the video to any cloud-based file storage, e.g., Google Drive. This way, a special iFrame code of your file is created. To display the video on your website, you would need to paste the iframe code in the embed code element.
1. Upload your video to Google Drive or any other cloud file storage.
2. Get an iframe code for that video. If you use Google Drive, follow these instructions.
3. In a new tab, open your website's editor. Add an embed code element anywhere on your site, and insert the video iFrame code.
4. Update your website and check what it looks like online.
