Celeste_Woodside Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) I am having the same issue.... Edited June 29, 2022 by Celeste_Woodside Link to comment

Innisfree77 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 (edited) I'm having a similar issue but mine is even more specific to YouTube videos that have been scheduled. 2 weeks ago I had no issues linking scheduled YouTube videos, I could even link videos that weren't fully uploaded on YouTube, but all of sudden last week I started having issues with this. The website I'm managing is in 7.0 platform. I've been linking to these scheduled videos for 6 months, seems weird that all of a sudden it should stop working. The error I get is "Incorrect link. Replace link above". Edited July 6, 2022 by Innisfree77 Link to comment
thatchrismiller Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 We are also having this problem. It's really messing with our workflow. Any guesses on when this will be fixed? Link to comment

Ingam Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I found a workaround while SQS figures it out, use YouTube codes instead of links or embedding. Link to comment
derricksrandomviews Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Youtube embed codes don't work, you need to use the URL address for the video. Link to comment
miltonwongts Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 hey, for me i needed to enable 'embed video' on my youtube channel in order to show it here. but i guess this would only work if you have access to the video settings directly! Link to comment
Electrify Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 It's late August and I have the same issue. How hard can it be to fix something that broke? Link to comment
Rimrock Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Hello, I contacted Squarespace about this and clearing my Safari website data (cache) fixed it. It didn't work to just clear the data for my site, I had to clear all. Only downside is this will log you out of everything. chrisdavis1570048609 1 Link to comment
R__ Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 In your YouTube channel under Video Details (Channel Content section), make sure you click on the box for "Allow embedding" for that video. Link to comment
splodeindustries Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 I had the same problem on Squarespace 7.0 and to fix it: I temporarily made my Youtube videos 'public' then put the link in box and it worked. Later I moved my videos back to 'unlisted.' Link to comment
LokiTM Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I am also seeing this. Unlisted video links are not allowed by the block. I know the URL is fine because I tested it with an incognito window in the browser. Link to comment
