Hi everyone,

I understand this was asked before in another topic I searched but did not help my situation. I updated to the latest JW 4.8.0 development to see if that would alleviate the issue or maybe there was a change or step I am unaware of.

I am running Joomla 3.6.2, JW allVideos 4.8.0 per the suggestion to use the latest dev version to see if it alleviates, and am having the problem in K2 category view introtext. I have the iframe code in the IntroText in K2 item editor as follows:

<iframe width="853" height="480" src="www.youtube.com/embed/M7W7rHxTsH0?rel=0" seamless="seamless" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen">

Im still trying out stuff as I type this but am stuck so thought I would ask the community for suggestions.

Thanks,
Pete

If you are using a word limit, then all HTML tags are being stripped.
I would suggest using the media tab and showing the item's video in the category view.

Instead of opening new topic let me ask my problem here as it is somehow related.

Is it possible I use Intro text limit and still retain text formatting in category listing?

If you are using a word limit, then all HTML are stripped, so your issue is indeed related.

If there a way (or small hack) to use word limit and still maintained the HTML?

You can use a function like this
stackoverflow.com/questions/965235/how-can-i-truncate-a-string-to-the-first-20-words-in-php

alongside with strip_tags() php.net/manual/en/function.strip-tags.php in case the layout breaks.

This should be applied to the introtext of the overriden category_item.php file. You can find more on overrides here: getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/174-templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates

Looks like not as simple as I guess.

Will it be too much for you if I ask which which code to paste where?

The easiest way would be to use a separate editor for the introtext and one for the fulltext. This will provide the utmost control over your content.

Furthermore you can use K2's video tab in order to control the visibility of the video in category/ item views.

Thank you so much Krikor for your help. Let me see what I can do.

My last option will be to show just the title like in default Joomla Category List.

You can move the iframe to video tab and use K2 video's block.
