Video Share Plugin
Usage/Syntax
The basic syntax looks like this: {{videosite>videoid?parameter1¶meter2|title}}
- Where
videosite
is one of the identifiers listed in Supported Services chapter - and
videoid
is the identifier of the video at the respective site - The
parameters
are optional. You start these with a?
and separate more of them by a&
. Look in Parameters chapter - The title is optional as well. Look in Examples chapter
- The video can be aligned by adding spaces on the left or right inside the curly brackets (like in the image syntax). Look in Examples chapter
A toolbar button pops up a prompt where you can simply paste the full URL to the page of the video you want to embed. The plugin will then try to figure out the video ID by itself
