Plugin not working with BeTheme

  • Greetings. I have been facing some issues with this plugin and I am not managing to make it work properly with my BeTheme-built website. Every workaround that have apparently worked for others do not for me and I am running out of ideas.

    Every attempt to put the “httpv://” link in the website (shortcodes included) just returns a string of the video link. And putting the link in a video block also doesn’t work, as it returns a black video box that gives an error message when played. Some people told others to use the plugin as a widget sidebar, but I just want to use it on specific videos on specific pages and I don’t see how a sidebar would be of any help. Any suggestions?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    So are you using a pagebuilder? In that case, does that pagebuilder allow the use of WordPress widgets on pages/ posts? Because that”s where the “use as a widget”-idea comes from; not to use in in a sidebar, but integrating widgets in pages/ posts through a pagebuilder?

    Yes, a pagebuilder indeed, and I have found out that it allows the use of widgets. Tinkering a bit I have finally got to make it work, it seems to be the only way to activate WP YouTube Lyte on BeTheme.

    That’s what I did:
    There’s a block called “Widget Sidebar” (I don’t know if it’s called that in English, I’m using the builder in Portuguese), and it allows the publishing of a widget in a specific part of the page through a custom sidebar. By making a custom sidebar and adding the WP YouTube Lyte widget to it, I was able to activate the plugin through the “Widget Sidebar” block.

    For a single video this would work wonders for me, but I have some other videos in my website that I would like to defer through the plugin. Would I need to add a different custom bar for every single video on my website?

    If LYTE doesn’t “see” the other video’s by default, then indeed it looks like you’ll have to convert them to a widget in a custom sidebar indeed I’m afraid, yes.

    I understand. Thank you, it’s working now.
