Embedding Youtube Video on Main & Product Description


Recommended Posts

Can't seem to find this anywhere, but could someone tell me how to add a youtube embedded image on the main page (like in the scrolling banner part of main) and in the product description?  I am using the most current version and everytime I try and embed a video it tells me "Description field invalid".  Thanks

to place videos on product description you don't have to use any module, possibility to add videos there it's a native prestashop function.

 

if you want to place contents somewhere else, you can try to use html box free module

Yes I actually bought the full pro version, but having issues with it right now.  As for video, there is no possible way to add as I alwasy get errors and invalid messages?  I just copy embedded image link, and place it with no luck, I think I am totally missing something here.  What is the actual proceedure to add a video to product description?  Thanks

I'm using

<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/bnmAoHiAHJQ?rel=0" width="480" height="360"></iframe>

together with patched TinyMCE:

extended_valid_elements:"iframe[src|width|height|name|align]"

It depends on your version:

Got the same problem - have videos on vimeo (supposedly accepted by PS that's why I paid for their upgrade) tried embedding - no luck - tried link - no luck - this is supposed to be a normal function in PS but nothing works. When trying to place a video into my slider with the link to vimeo - again no luck - the functions are there but it just keeps searching and searching ...... until an hour later I gave up

In short PS sucks big time
