Adding pages / videos

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi there!
    I’m trying to create my website (before actually paying for domains and all that) but is my first time doing so and I’m not really good at it (laughs nervously).
    I’d like to have my home page as a place I can post videos that I’m part of it, but I can’t seem to be able to add more than one (?).
    I also want to have a second page where I talk about my skills (singing, dancing, acting) with a picture for each but again, not managing to do so.
    Any chance you could help this unskilled technology trouble-fixing woman? lol

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi @carinadangas,

    Welcome to WordPress and the exciting world of creating your first website!

    You should be able to add multiple videos to a page, as well as pictures, as you need.

    If you navigate to My Site > Site Pages > Home page (or whatever you have called your home page). This should open the Editor. Select the Add Block button (the one with a + inside a circle) and scroll down to Embeds > YouTube > then enter the URL of your video. That should embed a playable video on the page. You should be able to do this as many times as you like.

    It is a similar operation with adding images, except select Image when you click the Add Block button. Then upload whatever image you want. Then do that as many times as you like. And add text block above or beneath the videos and/or pictures to give them titles, etc.

    I hope this helps! :)
