Customize player when sharing link

Hi,
How can I customize the Player when I'm sharing the video using the link, not embed? The share "link" reveals more information than necessary and I want a more "clean" video presentation. I'm sharing the Panopto video in a WordPress site and I cannot use the Embed code on this site.
Thanks
Regards

@Terje Bergli The full tab, interactive player isn't really able to be customized much, but you are able to just link to the embedded player without actually using the embed code. You do this by changing the word "viewer" in the link to "embed". I think this might accomplish what you are looking for.
Here is an example:
Full player: https://howtovideos.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=5fa74e93-3d87-4694-b60e-aaa4012214ed
Embed player: https://howtovideos.hosted.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Embed.aspx?id=5fa74e93-3d87-4694-b60e-aaa4012214ed

Perfect! Thank you, Kathryn. I already found a workaround by using the Settings>Outputs>Video Podcast - View Podcast - link. That link gave me a cleaner player that was better for my purpose. Your solution is perhaps better and I think I'll use that instead. Thanks so much ☺️
