Unable to get video to display from Google Drive to lightbox Ultimate

[gemineyez76]

Hi

I am having complications in getting the lightbox plugin to work.

I am attempting to load a video from my Google Drive and I have tried both “embedded” coding as seen in your support videos and by using the various shortcodes you have provided. When I go through the shortcode document, I notice that there are no listing for Google Drive itself.

If I test the coding for a youtube video or MP4 video there does not seem to be a problem. so the Issue I am having is isolated to the coding itself to contact the Google drive and pull the video and display it via the lightbox feature.

Hi, Have you checked this documentation?

Correct, this is 1 of the documentation that I tried which was no successful.

I believe the issue is in the short code and possibly the custom inline div.

I switched to the text editor and my workspace is blank. So i copied the coding I see in the document and replaced the embeded coding with the coding I get from the google drive.

when tested the video is not appearing in a lightbox.

the nature of the video(s) that will be posted are sensitive and restricted, so i will look for another video that i can upload to the G-Drive and test with.

Does that mean you are trying to use a Google Drive Sharing Setting, that is something besides “Public on the web” for that video?

no, the google drive location i am using is for testing purposes. Once I have the scripting properly documented, we will be using another google drive that will not be advertised openly, but for public access as your documentation reflects. From it, videos will be uploaded and only individuals with access to the particular page in the wordpress site will have access to the videos.

I think my problem is specific to the coding. As seen here hin your example ttp://prntscr.com/9sqrkw, if I copy the code exactly and replace the iframe src code with that of my google drive code, the lightbox is not appearing with my video. The video will play but not within a lightbox.

the page i’m testing on is located here:

[http://jcmsolutions.biz/index.php/class-video/]

the coding for it is as follows:

[wp_lightbox_ultimate_inline_content_embed div_id=“test1234” anchor_type=“text” text=“click here to open the google drive video”]

<div id=“test_1234” style=“display:none;”>

<iframe src=”https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3BKrwgIQW7aa0hwUXExSGNpT2c/preview&#8221; width=”640″ height=”480″ </iframe&gt>

</div>
