Easily resize your videos in NationBuilder pages

In our continued efforts to streamline website setup with NationBuilder, we've just released a new feature for resizing your YouTube and Vimeo videos with our Embed.ly integration. With a simple formula and no need for digging into the templates, you can adjust the size of your video player right from the WYSIWYG content editor. You can even use this for supporter-posted video content with no control panel access.

Here's example info for a 600-pixel wide video (the height will automatically scale - and this example is an image file because the text will automatically convert to invisible comments on our content editor):

 

And a 300-pixel video:

 

This works for all embed.ly video embeds.

Great new feature.

Does this new code work with just YouTube videos or with all content from embed.ly? If just YouTube, are other services (SlideShare, etc) on the way?
