hi there! i have a question about the play button not working when i try to play the song? I'm trying to use this code on this character https://toyhou.se/19234988.-aurelian- and whenever i try to press the play button it just refreshes the page or sends me to youtube? how do i fix that :0
HI much apologies for the late reply! been a long month (o_o;)
but from what i can tell from the profile, the issue is in the link. what you have right now looks like "https://www.youtube.com/embed/fIoxpiS01gE&ab_channel=FleetwoodMac-Topic" to me. you should be able to just remove everything in each link from the & onward, changing it to "https://www.youtube.com/embed/fIoxpiS01gE". the same process should work for the other video too !
essentially, for the embed link to work, you need to make sure you're inserting only the video id, generally everything after and & or a ? in the url has to do with referrers and such so it's got no use here. my bad if that wasn't clear from my initial instructions, i didn't account for those! i'll be sure to edit those instructions to make that more clear when i get the chance. for now, if you're ever having trouble distinguishing the video id from the extraneous tracking nonsense, you can click the share button on a video and look at the link it gives you there (in this case, "https://youtu.be/fIoxpiS01gE"), this should include just id you need!
hope that helps, thank you so much for your patience! c:
(i've also had issues with the embeds in general recently, tho it may be my browser - if you're not getting the option to click on it at all, changing the opacity from 0 to something like 0.01 should work!)
