Video Block

Video Block  – Documentation – WordPress.org

The Video Block is used to insert a video. You can either upload a video or paste in the link to a video elsewhere. This needs to be the url to the video file.

YouTube, Vimeo and other online services do not work in a Video Block you should use the embed block, YouTube or Vimeo block.

⚠️ Using the Upload button may not embed the video if you publish quickly. It is best to click Media Library and upload the video there.
