I am very new at this, and just learning the lingo. I want to embed a Google video in my post. I can see the script Google provides when you click on "embed", but I am not sure where to put it in the post.

When you create a new post in the Wordpress dashboard, there's a button next to "Upload/Insert" that allows you to add videos. You should read the wordpress help.

Jody,

One other option is go to the HTML tab when you're editing your PAGE or POST.

Simply cut the HTML code from your Google video and paste in here, the HTML view.
