Hi,
Currently, the plugin itself doesn’t provide a built-in shortcode for embedding videos—there’s no official [video shortcode] option included. Because of this, I’m not exactly sure how you’re importing or displaying the videos on the product page.
It’s possible that some custom code or another plugin is generating this shortcode. If you’ve added any custom implementation for the video embedding, could you please share that code with me? I’d be happy to take a look and help you figure out how to display the correct video.
Looking forward to your reply!
hi i spoke to my developer and i think i understand why this has happened.
The shortcode is from wordpress which I assume is something like [video]
As i had entered [video shortcode] – i do not think wordpress can have any shortcode which has a space between the two words i.e. should be video_shortcode – which then it took the word ‘video’ as the shortcode for embedding the video. I think this is a standard wordpress feature.
but would be nice to have an embedded video shortcode – can you somewhow manipulate this – so i can select video 1 or 2?
Kindly let me know
You can try using the standard WordPress shortcode format, which typically looks like [video src="link_to_video"]. This should help with embedding the video correctly.
However, at the moment, our plugin does not support this functionality. I’ll make a note of it for development in future versions.
Hi, thanks for getting back. But that would not resolve the issue for me.
As I wanted to display the product video dynamically in the product description based on the selected video of that product (which is set from your plugin).
I assume – you could fetch the url dynamically from the first video set in your plugin right – and then create a shortcode for your plugin.
Would you be looking to implement this?
What you’re requesting, specifically to display a video from the gallery dynamically in the product description using a simple shortcode, unfortunately won’t work as seamlessly as that. It requires a more complex development process to ensure proper functionality.
This would involve creating, testing, and potentially implementing new functionality within the plugin. At this moment, I can’t provide a quick solution, but I will consider it for future development.
Thank you for your understanding.
