Center Aligning a Video in WordPress: A Beginner’s Guide

by Quartez Watson

Want to center-align a video in WordPress?

By default, WordPress aligns videos to the left when their width is less than the article area, leaving extra white space on the right. In this article, we’ll show you how to center-align videos in WordPress to improve user experience and avoid unprofessional looks. We’ll cover both the block editor and classic editor.

Center Aligning Videos in WordPress Content Editor

To center align a video in the content editor of WordPress, the best way is to directly add the URL of a YouTube or Vimeo video to your post or page. Once you are in the content editor, paste the link to the video, and WordPress will embed the video automatically. Then, select the video block and click on the Change Alignment option. From the dropdown menu, choose the position of the video. After that, preview and publish your page or post.

Center Aligning Videos in the Classic Editor

For those using the Classic Editor, center aligning videos can be done by editing an existing post or creating a new one. Replace ‘your video embed code goes here’ with the actual embed code of your video.
