Hi,

so I ask my question again, and add more detail of my needs :

I have some albums.
in one albums, I would like to see a thumbnail. if I click on the thumbnail, I would like to play the youtube video linked.
the youtube video will comes from my account, and will be private in youtube (I don't want anyone see my baby starting to walk, and his first bike run !!!)

this thumbnail could comes a jpeg I could provide.
the video infos could comes from a text I can enter.

how can I do it ?
I see some person talking about a text file methid, but all link I found are broken, when I try to access it

thank you for any help
Olivier

You did not try to search on the user guide, did you?

Hi,

thank you.
I was browsing a lot this morning without success.

it helps me a lot.
thanks again.

Another question :

I use something like this :

I use the ZenPage theme.
the video is too large. if I reduce the size, it is not centered.
I tried to add "align=middle" or align=center without success.

is there an easy way to center the youtube video in the area displaying it with scrollbar ?
is there a way to use the entire area size for that video, without the scrollbar ?

I looked into the customizing in user doc, and still search...

thanks
Olivier

A lot links on the forum are outdated as we changed our site once and restructured the user guide. It would be too much extra to try to redirect all those. You should have been able to find it by just entering "youtube" within the search form. (At least that is what I tried).

ok, I reduce the size of the iframe :

like this : no scrollbar.

not centered, but it start to look nice

o)

That is a problem with the iFrame as that does not "know" the size of its content. Sadly no other way than modifying it this way right now. You could also try to set the iFrame to width: 100%.

hi,

width=100% did the trick. thanks
about the height, I had to use height=99% in order to have no scrollbar...

now I encounter other issue in the mobile theme (same site, showing the mobile theme on my phone)
nothing about the video is shown. album with only photos shown properly.

Height does not work on iFrames as with other html elements. That would only be possible with some JavaScript extras the theme has not built in (The next version whenever I get to revamp it will have).

Regarding the phone. If you have an iPhone the video will not work if it is a flash only one (Youtube still has some). This is a device limitation.

ok I think I can close this thread.

I solved my issue with mobile theme, it was a limitation with the user. using the admin credential, I see properly the video.

I will go back to tune properly my website.

thanks for support.
