Adding YouTube videos to your site is already pretty easy with our video element. But there are a lot of YouTube-specific controls that they offer for their embedded videos that — until today — have not been available in Webflow.

Now, with the new YouTube element in the add panel, you have a new level of control over how your videos look on your site.

Note that the YouTube element is not yet available as a CMS field. For CMS-driven designs, you can continue using the standard video field.
