- Social media – A link optimized for sharing on social platforms.
- Preview – Direct URL to the file’s preview.
- Thumbnail – Direct URL to the file’s thumbnail.
- File – Direct URL to the source file.
Video Embed Parameters (insert table)
When embedding videos or animated GIFs, you can control playback behavior by adding parameters to the iframe URL.
| Parameter | Description | Value for “On” |
| player_repeat | Loops the video after it ends. | 1 |
| player_autostart | Starts playback automatically without user input. | 1 |
| player_nolabels | Hides labels shown before playback (e.g., title). | 1 |
| player_nocontrols | Disables user controls (play/pause, seeking, etc.). | 1 |
Note: If player_nocontrols is enabled without player_autostart, the user will not be able to start the video.
