I have links to YouTube videos using the href tag in HTML. Whenever I save the page, a thumbnail shows of the YouTube video, however, I just want the link to show as text and not show as a thumbnail as well. How can I achieve this?

Hi @brian_t_anders
Hmmm................ it wasn't that long ago that folks were asking for the thumbnail - just shows to go yah!
I do not know a way, but I am certain that some of those quick-minded, sharp-brain folks in the https://community.canvaslms.com/groups/designers?sr=search&searchId=395333d9-9492-44bc-8e2b-91869d24... and https://community.canvaslms.com/groups/canvas-developers?sr=search&searchId=d077c9e9-d885-4cb7-9457-... groups.

OK, @brian_t_anders , I played with it. Here's the code (first piece is with a thumbnail, second bolded piece is without):
<p>As described in <a href="https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10367-415241508">YouTube guide</a></p>
<p><a class="" title="LOLCats" href="https://youtu.be/aI_Ftw4UEBw" data-preview-alt="">LOLCats</a></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Here is some text for this to appear inline <a class=" inline_disabled" title="LOLCats" href="https://youtu.be/aI_Ftw4UEBw" data-preview-alt="">LOLCats</a> more text</p>
Here's how it looks on the page:
So it's that " inline_disabled" part you'll want to add to the HTML.
