  Hello,
  I am having a problem with YouTube videos. The embed code offered by YouTube creates a tiny little video on my web site. I’ve tried everything I can think of, and nothing works to change the size.
  I have never had this problem before.
  Here is a page I uploaded a video to, so you can see the huge black areas on either side of what is a very small video.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Hello there,

  For help with a WordPress site hosted elsewhere you’ll need to ask over at the WordPress.org forums:
  https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ and you can also make use of resources found at https://wordpress.org/support/ for sites using the open source WordPress.org software.

  You can find more information here about the differences between WordPress.org software and WordPress.com: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
