Restrict Specific Editable Content

  • I’m currently working with a company – who’s site and name I’m unable to disclose here – and they are looking for a very specific web solution.

    They have a page on their website containing a video.

    Their requirements of this video is that it is automatically watermarked with the company logo and can be easily replaced with another video by any member of their staff (currently they are using the Kallyas theme page-builder to edit the site on front end).

    I managed to figure out that I could use JW Player to watermark their videos automatically, but in order for them to replace the video – they would need to edit the javascript that currently points to the video url.

    With js being so breakable, I’m nervous about giving them this to frequently edit.

    Is there any known way to allow front-end editing of ONLY the url within the javascript code? I’ve been bashing my head against a wall with this…

    Hey @astrofizz,

    What service do you use to host the videos? I had similar requirements from a client and set them up with Vimeo Pro. They can set all videos to be watermarked, restrict the domain the video can be played in (to prevent downloading/hotlinking) and it saves me storing them.

    It’s then easy for them to just copy/paste the Vimeo embed link into the field in your page.

    Does that help?
