YouTube embeds show in editor but not on blog

[redalearning]

Hello,

Wordpress 5.7 here with the latest X Theme.

I can embed YouTube videos in the editor…

but they do not display on the blog

After searching the forum, I tried clearing the Cornerstone style cache and even turned off the Cornerstone plug-in. The problem still occurs.

When I switch to a default WordPress theme, the video embeds display on the blog, so I know it is a problem with X Theme.

Please help!

Hi @redalearning,

Thanks for reaching out.
There might be some different reasons behind your reason, I would like to suggest troubleshoot the following common issue to help us to recognize the reason.

1.Plugin Conflict
2.CSS/JS Customization
3.Disabling Cache

If you discover that an issue is coming from a custom code or 3rd party plugin, kindly consult with a developer or contact the plugin author. Please note that we do not provide support for custom codes and 3rd party plugins.
If none of the above helps, please provide login credentials for your site in a secure note to examine it further, including:

– WordPress Site URL & Login URL
– WordPress Admin username/password

To create a secure note, click the key icon underneath any of your posts.

You can also try by adding the following custom CSS code in the Theme Options > CSS

.is-type-video iframe
{
    position:relative;
}

Please remember that the above code will work if copied as it is and don’t conflict with any existing style.
Please note that the code provided serves only as a guide to help you get started custom coding on your own if there’s no option offered in our theme or the products we bundle.
We really do not provide support for custom codes that means we can’t fix it in case it conflicts with something in your site nor will we enhance it.

Thanks

Thanks @tristup

I’ve tried all these things but still cannot get YouTube embeds to display. I’ll now send you admin login details.

Trying to deactivate plugins to problem-solve the theme issue caused my entire WordPress server installation to crash (!) I had to rename my entire plugins directory to access my site again. Still working on it. Please advise if you have been able to access the site. Without any plugins, it is now showing the YouTube embeds properly… but of course I need some of those plugins! What is your advice?

Hello @redalearning,

I checked your dashboard it seems that some of the plugin activated and some of them are deactivated and your site’s video rendering properly in backend and frontend.

Please note that we don’t provide any third-party plugin support. It is out of the support scope. You need to contact the plugin author who can assist you with your concern and fix their plugin issue or make it compatible with the X/Pro theme.

Thanks for understanding
