Button To launch Lightbox not Working

Hi I used the following code on a classic raw element: could you advise why it can’t be launched?

[button class=“video-whatisems” style=“padding:18px 85px;” type=“flat” shape=“rounded” size=“large” href=“https://youtu.be/LYRTFpN18F0” title=“WIEMSpro - What is EMS?” lightbox_video=“true”][icon type=“play”]WHAT IS EMS?[/button]
[lightbox selector=".video-whatisems"]

Hi There,

The shortcode is correct. Would you mind sharing the URL where you implement that so we can check?

Hi Please view over here: https://wiemspro.asia/

It’s on the 2nd button called “WHAT IS EMS”

Hi,

You need to use the embed url.

Please change code to this.

[button class="video-whatisems" style="padding:18px 85px;" type="flat" shape="rounded" size="large" href="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LYRTFpN18F0" title="WIEMSpro - What is EMS?" lightbox_video="true"][icon type="play"]WHAT IS EMS?[/button]
[lightbox selector=".video-whatisems"]
