  I have put a video link URL in my page and in the preview/edit version it is small sized and fits on the page but when I save and previews the page the video is so large it goes off the screen and only half of the video can be seen. What am I doing wrong?

  Do you have an example post URL we could look at? It can even be a draft post that you have not published yet.

  This is the URL for the page where I put the video, it bleeds off to the side for me when I load it

  Hm, Twenty Ten is a very old theme. As its name implies, it was released in 2010.

  I recommend seeking out a newer theme for this: https://wordpress.com/themes

  Am I able to change the theme without losing any content or formatting etc? If so, is there a page with instructions on how to change themes?

  Yep, changing a theme won’t affect your formatting.

  The worst-case scenario is you may need to spend a minute or two re-organizing your widgets and menu. Some folks even do it often just for fun. :)

  To change you theme, just find one you like at https://wordpress.com/themes and click the Activate button.
