WP Bakery Plugin – Youtube Link

[hnhm]

Hi,
I’m having an issue with a Youtube link just displaying a black shadow box on my homepage of my site. If you go to my site you’ll see on the homepage in the middle section where there are numbers listed. In number two I mention Youtube and put my url link and not matter what link I put it’s displaying a black shadow box. How do I fix this? I’ve cleared cache and deleted the link and put it back and try a different link and it’s doing this. I also deleted the text box and started from scratch and it’s still doing this with a native youtube link.

Hi Peter,

I just tried again to see if the Youtube link and it doesn’t. However, if I click it and say open up in a new tab the Youtube link opens. So, there’s something with the wordpress bakery plugin response to my Youtube link that isn’t working.

Hello!
WordPress is trying to auto embed your video in the text link
To avoid that follow this:

1) Edit the element in Text mode:

2) add the class to the “a” tag as class=”qw-disableembedding qw_social”

example:

3) Save it and you should ready to go

I tried adding the code and it didn’t work. Here is a link to my text field. Can you highlight the area that I’m to submit the code in? The Youtube text is toward the bottom.

Is this the code that I have to embed?

class=”qw-disableembedding qw_social”

Hello, that’s the code you have to add to your text block.
