Wix is a free, easy-to-use website builder and supports embedding Wistia videos. Read on to learn how to embed a Wistia video on your Wix site and troubleshoot common issues.

In your Wix site editor, open the "Add Elements" menu and select the "Embed Code" option. Select the "Embed HTML" widget and add it to your page.

Click "Update" to add the embed to the page.

To edit or replace the embed code, click on the embed and select "Edit Code."

When using a responsive Wistia embed code, the player will automatically resize to fit its container on the page. Hover over the Wix HTML container around the player to drag and resize the video.

Wix wraps all custom HTML embeds in its own iframe that cannot be edited. This is expected behavior on Wix's side, and there's no workaround for the iframe itself. It can cause a few related issues covered below; if a video behaves differently on Wix than elsewhere, this is usually why.

If Domain Restrictions are enabled for your Wistia account, the embed may show "Forbidden" on Wix even after you add your site's domain. Because Wix places the player inside its own iframe with a different URL than your page, you'll also need to add that iframe's domain to your video's permitted/allowed domains. Check the live published page (not the editor) to find the iframe's URL.

If you pass a URL parameter like ?wemail= to pre-fill or track a Wistia Form, it won't work on Wix. The embed runs inside Wix's nested iframe, so it can't read parameters set on the parent page's URL. This is a Wix iframe limitation, not a Wistia setting.
