Basically in a spot like this. Right when people are trying to read a description of a product they will be able to watch an embedded video.

Like on this page, but there is no video here.

Dizzydog ~ please don't use a Template Monster template for your first ZenCart site!

You will have more problems than it is worth - search the forum for Template Monster to see what I'm talking about.

Just copy and past the embed html code from youtube where you want the video in your product description. Customers will just have to click on the video to start it. I've done it this way on our site and it works great.

Re: Embedding video?

When you added this were you using Plain Text or HTML mode? Switch to Plain Text mode and try it again.
