    Hi,
    we want to show videos in accodion elements. Unfortunately the video shortcode is not working in accodion elements like it is when used in a section.
    we copyed the shortcode from debug mode and pasted it into the accodion element but the result was only a iframe with no mobile thumbnail and clicki action.

    Are we doing something wrong or is this simply not working?

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards,
    Sebastian

    Hey emilconsor,

    Sorry for the late reply. I tried the video URL in a regular Video element, and it’s not working there either. It looks like the video settings on Vimeo doesn’t allow it to be embedded or played outside of their platform? Please see screenshot in private.

    Best regards,

    Hi Rikard,
    thanks!
    We know about the pivate Vimeo content issues and we’re working on that.
    That was not our problem. It doesn’t matter what url we’re using, the video shortcode wasn’t working within a accordion element. However it works now but it is a bit laborious for editors to maintain the content with shortcodes in the text editor because it can’t be changed after it’s inserted. Is there a way to edit the shortcode the same way as it is possible when it’s inserted initially?

    Thanks so far.

    Regards,
    Sebastian

    Hi Sebastian,

    Sorry for the late reply. I’m not sure I understand this question fully:

    Is there a way to edit the shortcode the same way as it is possible when it’s inserted initially?

    Could you try to explain a bit further please?

    Best regards,
    Rikard

    Hi Rikad,

    I try to describe the single steps as close as possible, so you udnerstand what i’m asking for.

    The use case is to maintain videos wthin a accordion element which has two different inputs types title and content.
    In the content area there is the posibillity to use theme shortcodes like the video shortcode through the magic stick.
    Then the visual shortcode editor opens up in a lightbox. After finishing the editing and saving the shortcode settings the shortcode gets inserted in the content area. After that we’re not able to edit this shortcode again. As far as I know we have to delete the existing shortcode and do the editing from scratch. So we would like to now if it’s possible to avoid that workflow and if its possible to open up the visual editor again after the shortcode is already inserted.

    I hope this gets more clear now to you.

    Maybe this is too advanced and out of scope for the support but it would be good to know if this is possible.

    Regards,
    Sebastian

    Hi Sebastian,

    Thanks for the clarification, and for the screenshot. The workflow you are describing is unfortunately not possible at the moment.

    Best regards,
    Rikard
