Youtube Popup from an Image

HiWay99

Hello,

I would like an image when clicked to display a youtube video in a popup on a the same page.

Similar to what you have on your demo page.

Hi,

It's simple, just insert the "Image" item in the Muffin Builder, select the image you want to have and

paste the link to video into the "Zoomed Image" field.

If you want to use a video from youtube, be sure that link isn't the short one.

I mean, it have to be youtube.com/(..), not youtu.be/(..)

Thanks

Hi,

Is there any way to do this with the video being hosted in the media libary? I don't want any video hosted externally, but would like the image to be clicked and the video play in a popup window.

I used the video muffin item, but the play button is tiny in the corner and seems to be the only way to play the video, rather than habe a large play icon in the centre or even just click the imag eto play. 

Video is 2/3 down the page if you'd like to see what we have to work with - https://www.forzafinance.co.uk/

Unfortunately, the image trick with video is working only with youtube/vimeo videos.

But I've made a Custom CSS for you which makes this play button (on centre) bigger.

.mejs-overlay-button{
  transform:scale(2) !important;
}

Paste this code to the Theme Options > Custom CSS & JS > CSS

thanks
