    another question

    if i embed a youtube video on my website it shows as full width, even though i set the size at a certain size.

    is this because the theme has set all youtube videos at 100% in its functions?

    how do i change this ? so i can set the size when embedding video in the edit page, ie change the size code. see page example – http://www.joanwalsh.ie/biddy-early/

    thanks, joan

    thanks transmitstudio, i appreciate it. i will check that out.

    yes my questions still stand, i just have been busy elsewhere since. i was going to copy paste all my questions over the the pinboard section on wordpress forum to see if i would get any answers there.

    thanks so much, joan

    i have read it. but i really dont want to add a code to the functions.php. cos the last time i did i nearly stuffed my website. i had to get someone else to sort it in the hosting account (i dont have access to the hosting account unfortunately.

    it seems he is the opposite to me – he’s wants his youtube videos to be fullwidth, while i want to post them as i selected them in youtube / or at the very least to be able to change the size in the text editor. i am not allowed to do this.

    It seems no-one is answering / manning this Pinboard Support Forum. I have received no answers or solutions to all my other questions and problems re the theme. I am very disappointed. It leaves me and my Pinboard website up in the air and stranded.

    Please help.

    Because of the responsive nature of this theme there is no way to adjust the width of videos.

    thank you transmitstudio.

    and thank you Daniel Tara

    thanks for getting back to me on that. that clears it up.

    i was thinking this morning, if i wanted to have a page / post dedicated to youtube videos and i wanted them ‘smaller’ – i would have to use a Page format, and add a sidebar to the right / left. i realise i can’t add a sidebar to a post though.

    thank you joan
