Goal: show 2–3 YouTube videos side‑by‑side in a gallery when built‑in sections only support single video or images.

Current status:
Note: Code snippets are central to implementing the solution.
Is there any way to have a section with multiple embedded Youtube videos in Origin Theme? Slideshow block only does photos, multicolumn or row wont allow embedded code, and video blocks only allow one video. We’d like to show 2-3 videos lined up next to eachother in a gallery.

Thank you Sandy! This was very helpful.
I have Dawn Theme and I wish to create a Video Gallery with the possibility to upload my own videos through Shopify (without using embedded Youtube video to be clear).
Do you have a code for that?
Thank you in advance!
Hi, Sandy.
It shows that.
@martinafainozzi Sorry for the late reply, below is the code for your requirement-
##
{{ section.settings.title }}
{{ section.settings.subheading }}
{% for block in section.blocks %}
{% case block.type %}
{% when 'video' %}
{{ block.settings.video_url | video_tag: controls: true, width: '100%' }}
{% endcase %}
{% endfor %}
{% schema %}
{
"name": "Gallery App",
"settings": [
{
"type": "text",
"id": "title",
"label": "Enter Title"
},
{
"type": "range",
"id": "title-font-size",
"label": "Title Font Size",

@Cherry3427 Here it is working, can you please share some screenshot of front-end and backend where did you put this code?
@Cherry3427 Can you please provide your store url so I can check?
Hi, please check it: https://www.hytobp.net/pages/tutorial-video
Thank you.
it works!
Is it possible to have thumbnails of the same size on the mobile phone? Or can stack on mobile?
