# Embeds Block | Website Manual

**Embeds Block**

Embed blocks bring content from another service into your page when you paste its web address: a YouTube video, a Vimeo clip, a map or a social media post.

Coming soon

We are recording a new video for this one.

## Before you finish

Tick them off as you go.

**Not seeing your change?**

Your browser may be showing a copy it saved earlier. Open the page in a private window, or press Ctrl + F5 to reload it fresh (Cmd + Shift + R on a Mac).

If your site has a caching plugin, clear its cache too. There is usually a button for it in the bar along the top of the dashboard. Still the old version after a few minutes? Ask whoever looks after your site to clear the server cache.

### Good to know

Embed blocks bring content from another service into your page when you paste its web address: a YouTube video, a Vimeo clip, a map or a social media post. WordPress recognises many services and shows a preview in the editor.

The content still lives on the other service. If it is deleted or made private there, it disappears from your page too.

### You needed to change one thing. Now you are learning the editor again.

Your website should be handled. Not handed back to you.
