  Just noticed Youtube must have changed their embed size parameter. I now have a gap on the bottom of every Youtube video embedded on my website. I’ve listed one of my web pages and the video is about half way down the page. The gap is obvious as I have a border around it. What’s the deal and how do I fix it?

  Hey there! Your site isn’t hosted on our services. You might check to see how your videos are embedded; if you’re specifying sizes, maybe use the YouTube block instead and let WordPress and your theme figure out the right sizing.

  Going forward, these forums are primarily for sites that use our free-tier hosting. We’re a little different from the WordPress software itself. This article explains some of the differences.

  You’ll want to create an account at WordPress.org so you’ll have access to the correct community for your site. Or, you’d be welcome to host here; your plan would get direct support.

  I hope this helps!
