Then create a shortcode using the format below. Be sure to replace the URL listed here with the URL of your video, and the code is on a line by itself. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaNH56Vpg-A] Video Customization Options You can specify the width and height of the embedded video by adding &w=... or &w=...&h=...to the shortcode. It will automatically adapt to your theme’s content length and give you preferred dimensions. You can disable related videos by appending &rel=0. For example, this shortcode: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaNH56Vpg-A&w=640&h=385]
