Hey again Okay, it now works for me, and I want to share the solution in the hope that it will help someone else 🙂 I followed this advice: A short video URL has the format: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/<Your VIDEO_ID> But normal YouTube videos have the URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<Your VIDEO_ID> It seems Squarespace can't locate the video if the link has a /shorts/ in the URL. Maybe Squarespace is programmed to be compatible only with a "watch?=v" URL. Therefore, you do this: 1) copy the YouTube web address URL Important: Do not right-click on the video to "copy URL" or copy URL through the "share" function. These two methods add a "?feature=share" and a "si=1O7hxUt1usAD_py2" to the URL respectively, which Squarespace can't use. 2) Paste the YouTube web address URL into a new browser and change the URL into: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=<Your VIDEO_ID> I paste it into a new browser window because it is a little more convenient than changing the URL inside Squarespace's menu. 3) copy this modified URL into Squarespace, and it should work

Hey everyone I still experience the same issue even though I follow your advice. Does anyone have an idea of what I can do? As seen in the first screenshot, I get an "error" when I insert the YouTube link that I copy when pressing "share" -> "copy link" on my YouTube short video. Furthermore, the gallery page on Squarespace states "invalid video embed" as seen in the second screenshot. However, as seen in the third screenshot, I have made sure that I have pressed "allow embedding" on the YouTube video. Furthermore, I have tried inserting the standard YouTube URL to the video and the "share" URL. What to do?
