N.B. Your Wall of Love will fit to the width of the iframe container you place it in. If you want to adjust the width of your Wall of Love, you will need to manually adjust the width of the container in your CMS’s settings. This will manifest in your Wall of Love only displaying two videos wide, changing your CMS settings to increase the container width will allow you to increase the number of videos across your Wall of Love.
