Featured video plus with visual composer grid element

  • I’m trying to setup a website when you hover over a featured image of a post, it’ll show the featured video.

    The grid elements in visual composer do the trick fine. But for some reason the shortcode [featured-video-plus] only shows up as text, and not as the actual video.

    Any idea why that could be?

    Do other shortcodes work inside the grid?

    Try adding this to your functions.php. I do not use visual composer, so this is untested.

    // https://wpbakery.atlassian.net/wiki/display/VC/Adding+Custom+Shortcode+to+Grid+Builder
add_filter( 'vc_grid_item_shortcodes', 'featured_video_plus_vc_shortcode' );
function featured_video_plus_vc_shortcode( $shortcodes ) {
  $shortcodes['featured-video-plus'] = array(
    'name' => 'Featured Video',
    'base' => 'featured-video-plus',
    'category' => 'Content',
    'description' => 'Outputs the featured video.',
    'post_type' => Vc_Grid_Item_Editor::postType(),
  );

  return $shortcodes;
}

    Hi Alex,

    Thanks for the response.
    It doesn’t show the text anymore, but no video is appearing either.
    I check the html in the grid element after it’s been generated and there’s nothing there.

    The option to select the featured video plus however, is showing up in the options to pick from. So I feel like we’re getting closer!

    I didn’t get it to work. I’ll just have to find another way to do it.
