When I try to go to YouTube from embedded videos, I am told that it is blocked

    Hello. I am having a problem that I never had before, in 15+ years of doing this blog. When I try to go to YouTube from a video that I have embedded on the blog, I get a message that YouTube is blocked and refuses to connect. This happens on my PC/laptop at home, although the YouTube connection worked fine on my phone. In both cases, I am using Chrome.

    The videos remain embedded and play just fine; it’s just that I cannot go directly to YouTube by clicking in the usual place. Also, in a few cases where the video poster chose not to allow embedding, this makes it impossible for people to see the video at all.

    Thanks for any suggestions regarding how this might be resolved.

    Good Morning –

    Thanks for getting in touch. I’ll be happy to take a closer look at this. Could you send me a link to a few pages or posts where you have these videos? I didn’t see any on the front page of the site.

    Cheers!
