  I’d like to be able to have a page where I add videos that are either password protected, or that I can control which specific video(s) a specific user can see on that page.

  Is that possible? And if so, how?

  Thanks

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

  See here first https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/page-visibility/

  Protected – The page is protected with a password you set. After entering the password, we’ll securely store the password with the browser you viewed it with so you won’t have to enter it again. WordPress will prompt you for the password on your initial visit to a protected page, and only people who have the password can view a protected page.

  NOTE: One cannot protect only some of the content on a page. You can only password protect the whole page.

  Thank you. I might be able to make that work.
  I’m still thinking about other possibilities though;
  – Is it possible to embed multiple youtube videos in there instead? As I can make them private.
  – I’m also wondering if specific video uploads could be password protected with css, but maybe I should ask that in the css thread.

  You can embed as many youtubes as you wish to on any password protected page or private page.
