Embedding videos

Videos can be a useful tool to engage your audience. Videos have to be accessible so they should always have closed caption or subtitles.

You can read more information about video accessibility.

You must make sure your videos meet Welsh language standards. Please contact Bilingual Cardiff for advice.

Any videos that are created should be posted on Cardiff Council’s YouTube channel so that we can embed them into our websites. You can contact the Comms Team for more information.

Embedding in WordPress

To embed videos on a WordPress website, please use the video option in the pagebuilder.
