  Hello, I don’t understand how to embed videos now with these new features. Sure, I see the video embedding link/icon, but there use to be instructions on how to properly insert a Daily Motion video or a Vimeo video etc, where are these instructions? I keep trying to upload a video from Daily Motion (using the old instructions) but when I try to view it after publishing WordPress gives me an error message.

  Oh, and this new Drag and Drop feature is not working either. I’m having issues with images. Once I publish images on my blog, and I go to click on the images to enlarge or view in a new tab, window, etc…Wordpress gives me an error message (page unavailable)…???

  Must I pay $99 for the video embedding that WordPress offers in order to embed videos like we could before these new features were implemented?

  Thank you

  Have you tried typing “video” in the search engine for support docs…?

  The instructions therein still work just fine.

  Absolutely not. You only need to pay if you want to upload your own videos (and even then, you could upload them to, say, YouTube and embed them for free)
