We periodically get questions about how to hide the suggested videos you see at the end of a YouTube video. This happens if you embed the video into your own website, for example. It is an easy option to remove these suggested videos. By default, showing suggested videos is turned ON. To turn it off, do the following:
1. Select the Share icon below the main YouTube header (in the screen shot it is the street address of the property)
2. Select Embed.
3. Select Show More.
4. Below the Video Size option is a check box for Show suggested videos when the video finishes – Uncheck it.
5. Copy and paste the embed code (it starts with <iframe) which should include the option to not show those videos. Note you can change the size of the video viewer on your page using the dropdown box.
6. Go to your website and paste the embed code where you want it to show and save.
That is it!
The screen shot below shows you where to uncheck. Note, the difference in the embed code to show or not show those videos is just a few characters of text – Do not show includes ?rel=0….if rel=0, then the related videos will not be shown…so if you already have embedded videos you can add that in the right place as shown below in the iframe code examples..
No Videos: <iframe width=”640″ height=”480″ src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/bTTlJvGK9w0?rel=0” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>
Show Videos: <iframe width=”640″ height=”480″ src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/bTTlJvGK9w0″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>
