In today’s digital landscape, embedding YouTube videos has become an integral part of creating engaging and dynamic content. If you’re using Beaver Builder as your preferred page builder, incorporating videos seamlessly can enhance the overall user experience.

In this tutorial, we’ll explore the seamless integration of YouTube videos into your website using the Video Module in Beaver Builder.

Understanding Full-Width Pages

Full-width pages refer to layouts that stretch the entire width of the browser window, eliminating side margins. The primary purpose is to provide a more immersive and engaging experience for website visitors. This design choice is not only aesthetically pleasing but also contributes to improved user interaction and navigation.

Click and drag the Video Module to the desired location on your page.

3. Opening the Video Module Settings Popup

With the Video Module selected on your page, click on its settings icon to open the Video Module Settings Popup.

4. Selecting ‘Embed’ as the Video Type

Inside the Video Module Settings Popup, locate the ‘Video Type’ field.

You can obtain the video’s URL by:
