I am new to this program. i have a youtube site: https://www.youtube.com/@videohistoryof ... 1/featured
There are many videos and many playlists accumulated over the years.
I had been using an older program (web easy professional) to build a companion website and link
to the youtube videos and playlists. Now the program no longer functions due to removal of serial number server and the existing website does not show the links to the playlists as it once did. (maybe that is why they discontinued use of the product?)
For example in this link : https://www.video-history-catalysis.org ... -1_086.htm
there used to be a menu botton to show a full playlist as the youtube site does- it no longer shows up.
Also I have no way of addending my existing website with new videos.
==================
So i decided to see if i could rebuild this website using wysiwyg and the intro pages went well. I can also link to a youtube video, but i do not see a
way to get the existing playlists embedded into my website with a simple embed command. I put the youtube embed code into an html window and it does not work. Can anyone provide a solution to this problem since i have to way of addending my existing website with new videos.
Thanks for any help or explanations

Re: is it possible to have youtube playlists embedded in my project
It's not entirely clear to me which "playlist" functionality you are referring to. What exactly do you expect it to look like?
You can embed a YouTube playlist using the Inline Frame object with a URL like this:
https://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=PL9lTQtwNYjdya_jL5sv7j-v7zKFNXjlBa
This will display YouTube's playlist player, starting with the first video. However, it will not display a gallery of all videos with thumbnails, if that is what you are looking for.
I'm not sure whether YouTube still provides a built-in way to display such a gallery.
Also, note that any YouTube embed code that works on a standard HTML webpage should also work in WYSIWYG Web Builder.
The software inserts custom HTML code "AS IS", without modifying its functionality.

Re: is it possible to have youtube playlists embedded in my project
Thanks Pablo.
When I put in the frame object and I used your youtube link i get a black box that says youtube video player configuration error error 153
watch video on youtube
if i click the watch video on youtube it just goes to a generic youtube.com page : youtube.com
i am doing this on preview mode. will it be different if i do it on a web server? preivew mode worked fine for single video embeds from youtube.
all i want is a list like youtube gives of the videos in the playlist so that users can click and watch them. i dont need any thumbnails with pictures.
as in this directly below: even without thumbnails just a list of videos
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... d5boYwtU_Q
i am just trying to avoid inputting all 2000 links to individual videos
thank you
