    I’m using a Portfolio Grid in a post page in which I’ve placed a video (having created a Portfolio Item and put the video URL in there).
    However I’d like the video to open in a Lightbox and stay on my site rather than re-directing to the Youtube page where the video is hosted.
    I’ve looked at so many similar questions on the Support pages but can’t find a clear answer – so I’m not even sure this is possible.

    Can you help?

    Here’s the link to the post page: http://www.blatantlylondon.com/lumiere-london-2018/
    If you need to login to my Dash Board let me know and I’ll send deets.

    Thanks!

    Hey tesspaine,

    Thank you for using Enfold.

    Is the “Lightbox Modal Window” option in the “Enfold” > “Theme Options” panel enabled?

    Hi again Ismael, here’s my login details – I’m not confident that I’ve set up the Portfolio Item correctly.
    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Thank you for the update. We adjusted the youtube url format. That is the format that the lightbox recognize. ( see private field )

    Thanks Ismael,

    Just in case anyone else is having this problem – the URLs generated by YouTube gave me a full stop between the ‘U’ and ‘B’ so – ‘www.youtu.be.xxx’ – which I thought was odd and did actually change to the format you provided. I’ve just looked at all of my videos on YouTube and they all have the same odd, URL format – however, when I changed the format the video still didn’t work so I assumed that it wasn’t the URL but something else I was or wasn’t doing.

    So, Ismael, in the code, where do I insert the rel=0 in order stop the other recommendations popping up at the end of my video?

    Thanks!

    Tess.

    Hi,

    The “rel” parameter will only work if the video was embedded. Unfortunately, it’s not going to work inside a lightbox.

    Hi Ismael,

    I have exactly the same problem and questions as Tess. My video is also not showing in popup lightbox, only the featured image. I don’t want a featured image: the portfolio grid element should just show the Youtube videoframe, but I don’t know if that’s possible?. So, I’m also not sure if my defined portfolio-item is correct. You said you changed the Youtube url format to the one the Lightbox recognizes? What is the correct Youtube format we should use? Can you please have a look at my portfolio, too? I’ll put the login credentials in a private content.

    Thanks in advance!

    Regards,
    Roger

    Hi,

    My previous statement is no longer valid. Youtube parameters are now allowed in a lightbox. This is the accepted format.
