How To Embed Media And Social Posts In Your Content

One great way to break up words and text in your articles or graphics is to add media such as a tweet, an Instagram post, or a YouTube video — especially if you're creating a listicle such as a playlist or tweet-cap (a round-up of several tweets surrounding one topic, such as this:

The best way to add media into your article is to embed it, as opposed to taking a screenshot of it or just adding a link.

So here's how you can embed media into your Odyssey content:

1. Get the embed code from whatever you want to add into your article.

For Twitter, go here and click "Embed Tweet":

Then, copy the code:

For Instagram, it is a similar process:

For YouTube videos, right-click on the video itself:

2. Next, go to your Odyssey article with the copied embed code you selected and click on the + icon to the left of your text.

3. Then click on the embed icon.

4. Paste your code, and then click "Embed."

And then it should look something like this:

YouTube:

Twitter:

Instagram:

Other media that offer embed codes for their content should work the same way.

Happy embedding!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.
