    Hey!

    Just downloaded the free version of this theme. Love the features and the fact that I can tweak a lot of things.

    Just wondering though, I’ve set a header video by inserting the YouTube url as suggested. However, it doesn’t give me an option for hearing the sound on that video… Is there a way to fix that?

    Also when I pause the video it gives me some suggestions of other videos to watch, but I can’t click on them or on any of the other things youtube suggests to click on. Can this be fixed?

    Here is my website so you know what I mean:
    thebrinkonline.org

    Cheers

    @the-brink: Hello there,
    To enable sound in the header video you will need to use the Header Enhancement Plugin.

    Let me know if this helps you out!

    Hi!

    Thanks for the advice. The plugin has worked great to enable sound.

    What about the second issue? Is there a way of making those youtube links clickable?

    Thanks

    @the-brink: Hello there,
    I don’t see any suggestion link when you pause the video on your site. Do you see them?

    Kind Regards,

    How strange,

    What I see when I pause the video is a list of suggested videos as well as other interactive elements such as “share”. The video looks and behaves exactly as it does in You Tube except none of the links are clickable.

    Do you need a screen shot? how can I send you one?

    Cheers

    @the-brink: Hello Rosie,
    You can upload the screenshot on platforms like Goggle Drive or Dropbox and paste the link here.

    @the-brink: Hello Rosie,
    I’m afraid those suggestion video thumbnails cannot be removed nor you can click on it. It seems to be the default feature of WordPress.

    Hi Skandha,

    I don’t think wordpress is at fault here, since when I embed the same URLs into my posts all the clickable bits on that appear on youtube are also clickable in the post.

    I’m guessing it’s a feature of the theme’s featured video displayer which only takes the audio-visual content from the URL and not any of the interactive elements.

    Would be great to fix it if possible but it’s ok if not as a featured video is not absolutely essential to us.

    Cheers
