Want to show off?  Do you want to embed video or run a PodCast from your WordPress site?  Just to show you how easy it is to enhance your WordPress site with either video or audio, I’ve installed a WordPress video plugin.  I am touting both a plugin and a media experience itself.

First you’ll need a plugin to be able to show your handiwork, then you’ll need the video file component downloaded to your WordPress site (you can use the Media menu item) for the plugin to display.  I’m using Elementor’s video widget.  It’ll run YouTube vids, vimeo vids or a self hosted mp4 if you like.

It automatically installs when you add the Elementor page builder plugin. d search for Easy Video Plugin.  It will appear at the top; click the Install Now button on the plugin description, then click the Activate link and presto, you’re in business.

Once you have the plugin installed and activated just take your MP4, upload it to the media folders on the site and insert the link in the video widget.  Or upload or stream to your YouTube channel, grab the link and insert it in the widget.  You can add the video widget and make it appear on any page or post you like.
