Hi Enfold Support Team,
I’m having an issue with YouTube videos in the Easy Slider (Video Slide).
My client wants a YouTube video to start at a specific time. In the video URL field I enter for example: [in Private Content]
Unfortunately, the start time is not respected – the video always starts at 0 seconds. I have tried both &t=8s and &start=8, and also the plain watch URL with ?start=8, but none of these work in the Easy Slider. According to your video documentation and several support threads, controlling YouTube via URL parameters should basically be possible.
Could you please let me know
– which exact URL syntax should be used in the “Video URL” field to achieve this, or
– if there is a recommended workaround (e.g. shortcode, custom embed code, etc.)?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Emil
you can insert to that input field:
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/grA5XmBRC6g?start=50&autoplay=1&mute=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
but to have autoplay – you have to mute it
yes the whole iframe code works. without the mute=1 it will wait until you click the start button (then with sound)
But that’s not really a good solution. Because the video doesn’t start again when you autorotate to that slide again.
