Can you force the videos to be vertical in the Youtube widget? There isn’t an option for this in the app settings.

Hi @Utku ! Yes, I’m afraid we don’t have any news about this feature request :disappointed_face: But we’ll make sure to post here if anything changes :raising_hands:t2:

I would like to upvote the need for a Vertical Video display player. Squarespace, especially, is lacking the functionality for vertical videos. Would love to auto-play videos and not use the social media embeds. Those are my main reasons for wanting it here.

Hey there, @Kate4 :waving_hand: Thank you so much for upvoting the idea and sharing your reasons - that’s much appreciated :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello for me, the css code did not work. This code worked for me: /* ========================= VERTICALE REEL 2/3 FORMAT + SPACING ========================= */ /* Container: verticale reel */ .yottie-widget-video, .yottie-widget-video-preview-thumbnail { width: 100% !important; …

Hopefully it will help also for other YouTube Short video size seekers.

Hi there, @Lucienne_Broere :waving_hand: Thank you so much for the feedback! If you’re referring to this CSS code , I’ve just tested and it worked fine. However, your solution is great too and I think it work better for your use case. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us :blush:
