Fundamental OEmbed

Fundamental OEmbed displays content from a URL that WordPress can resolve through oEmbed.

Edit the Element

Select it in Structure. Set Content > oEmbed > Content URL to a supported public content URL. Use Design > oEmbed > Force Iframe Aspect Ratio when you need to define Width and Height proportions.

Style the element with selectors; shared classes affect every instance. Use Settings for conditions, interactions, animations, and attributes.

The provider and WordPress determine whether a URL can be embedded. The aspect-ratio setting applies to iframe presentation; it does not make an unsupported or private URL embeddable.
