How do I stop Youtube recommendation when using the YouTube widget on landing pages?

[Anonymous]

When I use the Youtube widget on landing pages, the recommended videos always pop up at the end no matter how I set the rel peramater on YouTube and in the video URL when I loaded into Marketo.  How can is stop these recommended videos from showing up?

Didn't I just respond to this one? What happened to the post?

Hi Sanford:

Sorry, I thought you were telling me to post it to Products.  Anyway, I haven't actually built the page yet.  I was trying to get the widget to work right first. I am not familiar enough with JS to know how to add that code.  Plus, I can't see any access to the hard code for the landing page. I am not a developer, so my knowledge of the backend is limited.

Yeah... I was saying you should move it to Products, otherwise replies will disappear.

A standard YouTube embed code (copy-and-pastable from YT) includes the rel parameter, which is what you need. If this doesn't appear with the Mkto embed code (I always build my own embeds anyway) then you should switch to a pure HTML field. That is, don't use a literal Marketo Video Element. Use standard HTML block, just as you would when building any web page. Often this is necessary to add things that canned video/audio widgets don't include.
