Long time lurker, first time poster. Please be gentle.
I am trying to get some vimeo videos running within a fancybox gallery. I've followed what I think are the instructions, my HTML looks like this:
class="iframe" href="'https://player.vimeo.com/video/xxxxxxx'"
When I open the link, the fancybox opens fine but shows a black box.
If I inspect the page, I see this:
iframe id="fancybox-frame1655194956187" name="fancybox-frame1655194956187" class="fancybox-iframe" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" src="//player.vimeo.com/video/xxxxxxx?autoplay=1&hd=1&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&fullscreen=1&h=xxxxxxx" scrolling="no"></iframe
What I think is intersting is the 'src=' bit which seems to be stripping "https:" from the src. If I manually edit that element in the browser, everything works fine.
Further, if I substitute a Vimeo video for a Youtube one, it works fine.
Any tips are greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

My Youtube embed appears in Chrome and Firefox, but it doesn't appear in Safari (which includes mobile Safari on the iPhone). I get the same result using Vimeo or native HTML5 video - nothing appears in this div. Here's a 1-minute video that shows exactly what's happening:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnqDlmYOKW8
I tried z-index, position, changing the width and height of the iFrame, changing https to http, removing encrypted-media in the embed code, and so much more.
The website is https://waltrib.com/shop/ and the test product is "Heavy Dirt". I'm using a plugin called Booster Wordpress that allows me to change product images into custom HTML (so I'm using it for Youtube embeds).
At 0:48 in the video above - what's bizarre is that when I open the Developer Inspector and add anything like www then the iFrame appears. Weird. When browsing in Safari, it renders Youtube embeds on every single page of the website, except for the /shop page.
I read this stackoverflow which suggests using object but that didn't work.
Has anything seen a bug like this? It's one of the strangest things I've seen recently.
Instead of :
src="https://youtube.com/embed/5i9SzaumaRg"
Use:
src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5i9SzaumaRg" // Note the "www"
Sounds silly, but works.
Update:
It seems a change in URL of any kind refreshes the iframe and hence it appears so following would work:
let i = document.getElementsByTagName("iframe")[0];
i.setAttribute("src",i.getAttribute("src")+"?r=4535");
Execute this code only after iframe is loaded. Use load handler for that.
Try adding parameters to iFrame src link:
<iframe src="https://youtube.com/embed/5i9SzaumaRg?enablejsapi=1&origin=https://example.com/" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Ive got a very basic WordPress website using the new 2017 theme and I'm trying to embed a simple video. The video is on OneDrive, but it should be the same as YouTube or any other source, and I can play the video fine in a plain HTML page.
When I insert the following HTML iframe in my post:
<iframe src="https://onedrive.live.com/embed?cid=3F3E866DF352275A&resid=3F3E866DF352275A%21106&authkey=ADg-86mHmhzI3mw" width="320" height="180" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen></iframe>
It shows a small blank frame for a few seconds when I preview the post, then it jumps to the onedrive embedded link showing the video full screen, so you cant see the post.
I tried using a plugin too and that didn't work either, somehow it had the same problem. I was using FV player which seems to be very popular but when I try to embed this video it says there "Video Issues". I know there's nothing wrong with the video because, again, I can insert this iframe in a plain HTML page and it works no problem. Only when I embed the iframe in a wordpress post does it pop out into the onedrive link and go full screen.
Any suggestions? This should just work and I don't know what I'm missing.
src="https://onedrive.live.com/embed?cid=3F3E866DF352275A&resid=3F3E866DF352275A%21106&authkey=ADg-86mHmhzI3mw"
replace the embed with download. and use normal video tag instead of iframe.
src="https://onedrive.live.com/download?cid=3F3E866DF352275A&resid=3F3E866DF352275A%21106&authkey=ADg-86mHmhzI3mw"
I am having a website.
I want it to be displayed as an Iframe on my partner site.
<iframe src="http://www.mywebsite.com"></iframe>
However, when he try to see it, nothing is showing up, blank page, but if he change the same iframe source to youtube for example, he got the videos.
Very strange, any idea where the problem is coming from ?
Cheers
I've made no code changes, but in the last few hours, all my embedded youtube videos (using the new iframe html5 method) started autoplaying.
From searching around online, I found some that recommended putting ?autoplay=0 in the src URL, but that doesn't work.
Another suggestion said I'd have to go back to the old method, and that that's the only one that allows us to turn off autoplay.
I'd really rather not do that, but certainly will if I need to, but the bigger question is,
Q1: Is there another way to stop it from autoplaying other than reverting to the old embed?
Side question: What changed in the past few hours that made all my videos start autoplaying?
<iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/N2tlvo5CI4Y?autoplay=0"
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I hear it's the GoogleCast extension.
Disable it
Close Chrome
Run Chrome
Should be fixed for now.
Well, try this on fiddle :
<iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets/tweet_button.html?url= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vabnZ9-ex7o" style="width:100px; height:32px;"></iframe>
when you OPEN the page you will see "0" on twitter. But, if you "run it" (on fiddle) it will show "24". Why? And How can I fix it?
To me is seems like a connection issue. As you click the fiddle the first time, you get the same behavior as you experience on Twitter. However, when you click run to update, it works the way it should.
... and what exactly do you mean by OPEN?
edit:
The IFrame uses the referral url. If you take a look at JSFiddle, the counter links to how many have shared the page where the IFrame is present. Instead of the YouTube url you provide using the src attribute.
This makes sense when you think of the actual use of the Tweet-button.
But it is still a bit odd, that the count it shows on JSFiddle refers to the YouTube link you provided and not JSFiddle.
However, if you do remove the YouTube link you can in fact see the counter change to how many who's shared JSFiddle's display page.
This confirms, that providing a external source to the IFrame is not a decent way of making this work.
If this is necessary, the button must be created using the anchor element instead of using IFrame.
