The tutorial assumes you are already logged into your Joomla administration panel.

  2. Below the video click “Share” button, then “Embed”:

  3. Copy the “src” value from the appeared code for embedding:

  4. Navigate back to the product Custom Fields interface and replace the original “src” value with the copied one.
