How to add embed code to a page

When planning to add an embed code from a third-party service to your university-hosted WordPress site, you should first check with Web Services before making any purchases.

To get an external HTML embed added to your website, please submit a ticket to Web Services. Our team will review the embed for accessibility and security. If there are no concerns, we'll add it to your site for you.

Web Services will only permit embeds from the domains listed below. Any requests for embeds from un-trusted domains will require an exception, which we will evaluate on a case-by-case basis.
