    I tried to upload a video I created on my laptop to wordpress but it won’t work. The file type is not supported by wordpress but I’m unsure which one would be right to try to convert my video to in order to get it up… Can someone please help me?

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

    I see you already know how to embed YouTube videos on your site. One solution would be to upload the video you created on your laptop to YouTube and see if that works. Then simply embed the YouTube video on WordPress like you’ve done before.

    If the video you’ve created is in an odd format that YouTube rejects, try converting it to .mp4 for greater compatibility with different services. If you have a paid WordPress plan that lets you upload videos directly to WordPress, .mp4 should work with that too.
