  Hi there,

  I see you wish to upload videos to your site. If your concern is for this site ‘showmeminecraft.wordpress.com’ then you need to purchase either of Premium or Business plan.
  Only these 2 plans offer the feature of uploading video to your blog post.
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/videos/

  Let me know if I have misinterpreted you question.

  Hi krutidugade,
  I am fully able to insert url into my site and have video showing with no problem. However I need to be able to categorise the videos that I link within my pages as it will help out the community when my site goes live.

  Thanks,
  Leighton

  Hey Leighton,
  I doubt if you can categorize videos on WordPress.com.

  I checked your site showmeminecraft.wordpress.com. It doesn’t have any video links. So, I assume you are referring to another site.
  Can you please provide the URL of that site?

  If you need help with self-hosted website then YouTube Simple Gallery plugin can prove helpful.
  Check out this link:

  Also, if you are WordPress.org user I would like to inform you that this forum is dedicated to WordPress.com sites.
  If you’d like to know more about the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, check the page linked below: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Hello,
  I`m using localhost/wordpress/wp-admin
  I need to set everything up before I transfer it to a live server.

  Can I ask?
  Which is the best way to put videos on each page?

  Thanks,
  Leighton

  When you are on “Localhost”, you use self-hosted WordPress.org. This support channel handles assistance to WordPress.com hosted sites and the guidance provided here won’t be relevant to WordPress.org sites.

  You can get some help in the support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  WordPress.org and WordPress.com are different and it can be little confusing; more information about the differences can be found here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
