Share and embed playlists in Video Portal - Theming


About

From the My Playlists page, you can share any playlist using the built-in share feature. This lets you copy a direct link, post to social media, or embed the playlist, depending on your site settings.

These instructions are for Theming users. For non-Theming users, please see our article Share and embed playlists

Embedding playlists is only available when the Embedplaylist module is enabled. 

If you cannot share and embed playlists, ask your administrator to give you the required permission.

From the user menu in your video portal, select My Playlists. (If you don’t see this option, ask your administrator to give you  the required permission.)
