Full Width Video for Wordpress using Gutenberg in X Theme

[Samantha]

Hi,

I have recently stopped using Cornerstone only because I need to get content onto my site as quickly as possible and found I was taking too long trying to make each post look pretty.

I am adding youtube via URL now in gutenberg blocks and I found through this forum a good solution and added the code

// Load default block styles.
add_theme_support( ‘wp-block-styles’ );

// Add support for responsive embeds.
add_theme_support( ‘responsive-embeds’ );

which I added to my child theme. This fixed the video, but they are not my full site width which I have set at 90%. The images and text go to the end of this container but the video sits inside this. Is there any way to make the video fit the full-screen width when using Gutenberg?

Thanks.

Hi Samantha,

Thank you for writing in, please add this to Theme Options > CSS

.wp-block-embed {
	margin-left: 0;
	margin-right: 0;
}

If that did not work, please provide us the direct URL where we can see the video block.

Cheers,
