youtube link problem

hello – does anyone have any suggestions at all? I don’t know what else to try.

thanks.

Hi,

It’s not very clear what you are trying to do… Can you share a link to the web page where issue is occurring?

hello,

I should have thought of that! sure thing.

please visit:

the first image has been set up to open a youtube video. if you click on it you will see that it also opens up the image and places the video below it.

hope this makes more sense.

thank you.

I see…

Don’t use the Youtube embed code in the image title. You need to LINK the thumbnail image directly to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8BWnyYgooc

hi – sorry – I am not sure where to do this? I only see an option to put it in ‘Alt & Title Text / Description’

thanks.

This is in the NextGEN plugin? The I cannot tell you because I do not use NextGEN… But it seems you are not the only one looking: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/how-can-i-link-a-image-with-an-url-with-nextgen-20

Hang on, I found a how-to that might help you: https://holondesign.com/nextgen-by-photocrati-gallery-thumbnails-go-to-pages/

By the way, Easy FancyBox is not compatible with the jQuery Updater plugin. Notice how it’s not possible to close FancyBox once opened. Better remove jQuery Updater or switch to another lightbox plugin…

thanks for all the info. I still cant get it to work but feel it is a limitation with nextgen – I think I will deactivate and use the wordpress gallery.

appreciate your time.
