I haven’t seen this mentioned anywhere so thought I would share.

If you want things like videos and other embeds to resize automatically, you need to enable responsive embeds: [https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/themes/theme-support/](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/developers/themes/theme-support/)

The code specifically for this is:

`add_theme_support( 'responsive-embeds' );`

It needs to go in your functions (or in the case of Pinegrow custom.php) file.

Excellent tip 🙂

note: this option is set by default in the **Starter Theme 2**
