I recently faced an interesting challenge while working on a website for one of our clients. They wanted to incorporate a YouTube video in the background, but weren’t sure how to do it. I was reluctant since I had never done this before and wasn’t sure if it was even possible.
After doing some research, though, I figured out there are ways you can add YouTube videos in the background using Divi.
In this blog post, I’m going to show you exactly how you can easily implement YouTube videos into your Divi site’s design!
