    Default Need help adding a single video

    My first post and I have to admit that I'm glad to have stumbled across this site.
    I'm creating a video theme to be added to a WPMU installation project. The theme I'm using is called VideographEx which was a re-do of the Videographer theme. The demo template can be seen here:

    http://www.territjohnson.com/

    In the theme there's an "ad_sidebar.php" file that allows you to add a 336x300 ad code. What I'm trying to do is add a single video above the sidebars. My goal is to share the ad and video so I'm wondering if there's a way to add to add the plugin code to the theme which calls the video? I have the YouTube sidebar plugin installed and have it set as a widget but I haven't figured out how to add it to the ad_sidebar.php file for the purpose of calling this single video.

    Hopefully I haven't confused anyone. Any responses appreciated.

    A much easier solution would be to create a third sidebar, one that is above the two skinny sidebars which takes up the length of the sidebar columns. Then, place a text widget with your embedded video code into the text widget so it displays on the page.

    Talk about overlooking the small things. Turns out all I needed to do was embed the code. Thanks for that "spark". All is well now.
