Embed/add Youtube video in a post

Within a post, I want to embed/add a Youtube video in such a way that it can be played right in the post, without going to Youtube. Please let me know how to achieve this. Thank you! I'm using a forked Blog template.

If you copy and paste the URL to the YouTube video into the post, Blot will replace it with an embedded player. Does that help?

Oh that's neat! Sure, will give that a try and let you know if I face any issues. Thank you!

This method doesn't appear to work with Google Drive docs. When I post the text for the url of a youtube video it just shows the url, not an embed for the video.

Would be great to have this feature for Google docs!

Good catch, I will add support for this to the Google Docs converter and follow up here
