YouTube Video Integration Questions

Hello Andrew,

Hi! I'm trying to integrate video links into my site. However, when I preview or publish the site the video doesn't have available the YouTube bottom bar, which is useful for fullscreen capabilities / playback features. How do I enable the bottom bar so that it is visible?

From the side panel, choose Display player controls:

I also noticed that, if a cell is completely filled with a video, it automatically plays, doesn't play audio, and is unpausable / uncontrollable. How do I enable controls for a video filling a cell as well & how do I disable autoplay?

Correct. Unfortunately, there aren't controls to choose for a video that is set as a background in Nicepage for now. As for autoplay, it can depend on the browser you're using. For Google Chrome, they have autoplay turned on and it needs to be turned off. You can search for tutorials on how to do that.

Thanks! Is it possible to submit feedback on this feature to suggest future updates? Or do the devs keep up with the forums?

Of course. You can submit ideas on new tickets. Our developers do keep up with the forum and look into the features that get the most upvotes.

Since April 2018, Google made some changes to the Autoplay Policy. You not only need to add the autoplay=1 as a query param, but also add allow='autoplay' as an iframe's attribute

So while embed youtube video, you will have to do something like this:

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID?autoplay=1" allow='autoplay'></iframe>
