Embed Shortcode Not Working

Hi,

You can simply add a link to a youtube video by entering its url into a text document:

https://www.screencast.com/t/LKCYXx36

This video will be removed in a few days.

By the way, thanks for posting the info about your server envirement.

There are some things that need attention to meet the Elementor requirements:

PHP is too low
Memory too low

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I have tried adding URL in a Text Editor but the embed will show in the visual Text Editor as attached in screen shot but no on actual live post below:

I don know if asking my hosting provider to increase my PHP and Memory will solve the issue too as this is a simple embed shortcode function.

Thank you very much for your kind assistance!

Hi,

The memory and php are not the cause of this no.
However, they will cause issues sooner or later, so better get that covered -:)

As for the video, may I ask why you do not simply use the video element?

If you want, for some strange reason haha, do it the hard way:

Text element
set the tab to text
add url so no embedd code or anyting just this for example “https://youtu.be/yPYZpwSpKmA”
not the brackets only the url YouTube gives you to share.

save and it shows up in my test site: https://logologics.nl/webshop-starter/video/

Yes! It is working in this way instead. Plain Text Tab does the job better to embed URLs in Elementor than its Shortcode widget for WordPress built-in Embed function.
I wanted to embed some URLs and Youtube was juz a sample test URL.

I have also updated the PHP Version to 7.2.14 and increase Memory limit to 256M.
Thank you very much for your kind advice!

Great, glad it worked out for you.

Have a great day,
Annie
