Hi guys
We have embedded the ID code for our you tube posts in the grid settings in our posts however we are not able to get them to display. Can you help us out.
Page with grid
We have it working in essential grid.
Page with essential grid
PS We implemented the Grid as we needed its attributes for the archive template We used the essential grid first up on the build. Hope that makes sense.
Hello There,
Thanks for writing in! The Grid plugin does have the ability to display videos in the grid item. Please make sure that you have enabled the video in the Media Content under the Source tab.
Hope this helps.
Hi guys please see my settings below, yes they already were as you indicated
and
Look forward to your thoughts

Same Problem here, and i run a https site, since the last days… If i Change the Source from Video to Videothumbnail or other. I became a browser Warning. The Site isnt complete secure. Has YT changes APi´s and Thunbs are loaded from not Secure Servers?
Hi there,
Youtube always uses the secured connection, maybe what you’re getting is CORS related. It’s when your site/host doesn’t allow other domains to be embedded or execute within your site even if they are on HTTPS.
You should check your hosting and see if they can allow youtube.
Thanks!
CORS is active here thats NOT the Problem. It dont work since Pro 1.2.5 with Pro 1.2.4 all was fine with Essentail Grid and YouTube. I dont belive its Server related. I have Set the CORS Entrys in the htaccess… No Changes, If i Change the Source from Video to Videothumbs … The Site is not Secure at all.
Have you guys had an opportunity to review this issue, yet as I am not sure the comments below relate to our site issue.
Hi,
You need to add an alternative image, that will be the image placeholder for your video until you click on the item.
I added one so you can check, please replace with your own image.
Thanks
Hi Paul
Thanks and one more thing
Is there a reason why in Essential Grid it pulls and the place holder image thru from Youtube and yet it doesn’t in The Grid?
@philysgdy Update Essential Grid to last Release and the Error is gone for me Essential Grid 2.1.6.2 was today in the Update List
Hi there,
Would you please kindly follow the instructions @The-E-Blog mentioned and see if it fixes the issue?
Thank you.
Hi guys
Sorry no that didn’t fix the problem, I went on with Paul’s suggestion on dropping in an alternative image, but at the end of the day, this is a stop gap approach as we are not the content managers only the builders. I don’t think the client wants to call every time they post a video. We look forward to any support you can provide on this.
Try Follow… For the Source of the Grid only check Video and on the right side Featured Image. Noting other then it works here… And check also the YouTube Videos if Thumbnail Settings right…
Hi @philysgdy,
Do you mean you wish to implement the grid the same as essential grid (with inline videos)? You should select a skin with no lightbox functionality so it would play in place instead of popping out.
I think the difference here is skin, you have a skin that popups for playing the video, wherein EG, the selected skin allows playing the video in place.
I tried creating a skin that allows that but it has very few options. I’ll continue checking but I can’t guarantee any result. Why not use EG, you can use it in archive templates too https://www.themepunch.com/faq/auto-populate-grid-for-blog-pages-with-the-loop-advanced/
Thanks!
