Does the $rel=0 parameter to prevent Youtube from showing related videos in a lightbox still work in Webflow?
Yes, the
$rel=0
parameter to prevent YouTube from showing related videos in a lightbox still works in Webflow.
By default, when you embed a YouTube video in Webflow using the built-in Video element, it will display related videos once the video has finished playing. However, you can prevent this behavior by adding the
$rel=0
parameter to the YouTube video URL.
To add the
$rel=0
parameter in Webflow, follow these steps:
- Add a Video element to your Webflow project by dragging and dropping it onto the desired page.
- Double-click on the Video element to open the settings panel.
- In the Video URL field, paste the YouTube video URL you want to embed.
-
Append the
$rel=0parameter to the end of the YouTube video URL. For example, if your original URL ishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abcdefg, the modified URL with the$rel=0parameter would behttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abcdefg&rel=0. -
Once you have added the
$rel=0parameter, the Video element in Webflow will no longer display related videos after the embedded YouTube video has finished playing.
Keep in mind that the
$rel=0
parameter only works for YouTube videos embedded using the Video element in Webflow. If you are manually adding YouTube embed codes to your project, you will need to add the
$rel=0
parameter directly to the YouTube iframe code.
Overall, utilizing the
$rel=0
parameter helps maintain control over the content displayed after a YouTube video finishes playing, ensuring a more focused user experience.
