How to hide the CC button?

    By default, the Subtitles tab (of the shortcode editor) is always there no matter you tick the Subtitles checkbox under Post Interface Options or not.

    Only if you tick it, then you will find the Subtitles options under the Subtitles tab.

    I hope that the developers can rename these labels and make it easier to understand.

    Now if my video has built in subtitles that are part of the video and I don’t want to confuse my audience or make them think they could turn the subtitles off. Is there an option to hide the CC button?

    Thank you!

  • Hello Painlesseo,

    thank you for reaching out to us!

    Where are you hosting your videos? The CC button should not be there, unless there are subtitles, either inserted as a VTT file, or parsed from YouTube or Vimeo.

    Alterantively, you can hide the CC button by using this CSS:

    .flowplayer .fp-cc {
    display:none;
    }

    You can learn more about using CSS with FV Player in our guide: https://foliovision.com/player/advanced/css-tips-and-fixes

    Thanks,

    Hi Maria, thank you for the update!

    I’m using the plugin to play YouTube videos I recorded for my audience. I usually add my own styled subtitles to all my videos and they are part of the production.

    If you enable Remove Logo for YouTube (Pro) under Hosting, it gives you a very clean UI. By doing so, the CC from YouTube is also disabled (from my observation and I love it!) but the CC button is still there and even has the options to turn on English or turn it off, which are obviously not functioning (or needed) and should better be hidden.

    Thank you!
