Embed+Other+Content

You can embed almost anything on your wiki, website or blog these days. While it's tempting to try everything, it's important to know what you want to accomplish with your website and try tools that might help you reach your goals. Every program requires a username and password and managing all that information can become overwhelming.

Take your time and get your feet wet with a few of these tools.

What it means to embed something on your website

 * Many websites, such as YouTube, create special website code for you to place onto your website.
 * When you place the special code on your website and save the changes, your website will now display whatever you embedded.
 * The content isn't stored on your website, but is still stored on whatever site you created it on.

How to embed in Wikispaces

 * 1) Copy the special embed code for a website such as YouTube (look for the word embed on the site)
 * 2) Edit a wiki page
 * 3) Click on the TV button on the Editor
 * 4) Click Other HTML
 * 5) Paste embed code and click Save
 * 6) Save the wiki page to see the embedded content


 * NOTE:** You won't see the embedded content when you are editing the page.
