By default, Ezoic Video's Auto-Insert places a video player on any eligible page without a manually embedded player. This article covers how to prevent videos from appearing on specific pages, directories, or areas within a page.
Option 1: Meta Tag
Add the following to the <head> of any page you want to exclude:
<meta name="ez_video" content="off">Option 2: Exclude by Meta Tag Value in Dashboard
To exclude pages based on specific meta tag values, add them at Player Settings > Exclusions.
Option 3: Exclude by URL in Dashboard
To exclude a specific page by URL, add it to the exclusion list at the same location.
Option 1: CSS Class
Add the class ez_video-off to any HTML element where you do not want a video inserted:
<div class="sidebar ez_video-off">
<!-- Video will not appear inside this element -->
</div>Option 2: CSS Selector in Dashboard
Add CSS selectors for elements to exclude at Player Settings > Exclusions.
Pages such as contact, privacy policy, or checkout pages can simply be added by the Disable Videos by Page.
If your CMS outputs custom meta tags per post type or category, this is the most scalable approach for excluding entire sections of your site.
A single selector applied to a consistent theme element (e.g. sidebar) will exclude video from that area across every page at once.
No. Exclusion rules only apply to Auto-Insert. Manually embedded players will display regardless of exclusion settings.
Yes, if your CMS outputs a meta tag or CSS class identifying posts by category. Add the meta tag to the dashboard exclusion list, or apply ez_video-off to your category template's content wrapper.
Changes typically take effect within a few minutes.
