Hello !

Unfortunately there is an issue from facebook due to their api changes. At the moment you can add videos from facebook by following these steps:

1. Get to your video and click on the 3 dots like shown in the picture:

2. Click on Embed button and copy the link you will receive.

3. Go to your post and edit it as HTML :

4. Paste your code that you’ve received where you want your video to be displayed:

Hello !

This issue may be due to video privacy wich was set by the uploader on facebook. Check out more here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/embedded-video-player/

Thank you !
