How to Embed Media with OSEmbed

Documentation for Joomla 3

OSEmbed Pro supports these 187 providers and OSEmbed Free supports these 20 providers.

The process of adding media is normally straightfoward, although some sites do have different URL formats. Please check the links above for more details.

Let's see an example with YouTube which supported in both the Free and Pro versions.

  • Copy the URL of the content you want to embed. For example a YouTube video:

youtube embed

  • Paste the URL into a Joomla article:
url in osembed
  • Save the article and visit the front of your site. Your embed will be displayed. In the image below, I have a working YouTube video:
