  Youtube video does not gel with what you see on screen. I want to change my background but system does not allow me.

  Are you talking bout a site running on the wordpress.com platform? If so, the only way to embed a YouTube video is by sing the Youtube block, https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/youtube-block/

  No. You have completely misunderstood the question. Is this responded by an AI bot? You have a youtube video that indicates how to change background but it does not have such a function to change on the actual screen. I’m happy to withdraw from WordPress if there are restrictions in change of background. Just wasted time. Simply, I need to change the background.

  I’m certainly not a bot!
  You can do so by adding a CSS class in the Advanced tab. But to do so on the wordpress.com platform, you must upgrade to the Premium Plan.

  Bingo! This is what I’ve suspected. I believe you are a personnel from WordPress so the response is representative of WordPress? Pl confirm. Will proceed to withdraw. Thanks.

  Hello there,

  Many thanks for reaching back out.

  If upgrading to the premium plan is of interest, there would be no need to cancel/withdraw any other plans that are in place on the site.

  This is because we take into account the current subscription when it comes to upgrades.

  Once upgraded, you can request help with that CSS here: https://wordpress.com/help/contact

  I hope this helps.
