FAQ
- Why aren’t my height and width attributes working?
-
Perhaps you are not aware, but the attributes “height” and “width” are case sensitive. Please remember to use all lowercase letters when adding attributes.
- Are there any other available attributes?
-
The Current Available Attributes are:
-height (sets height of video)
-width (sets width of video)
-class (adds a custom css class to your video)
-portrait (when false(default), removes the image from the top left of video)
-byline (when false(default), removes “From #####” in the title
-autoplay (when true, plays the video automatically) (default: false)
-title (when false, removes the title from the video) - Why does my video look disproportioned?
-
When setting height and width attributes, they should maintain the same aspect ration of the original video..
i.e. height=”250″ width=”400″, or 1 : 1.6
- How do I enable AutoPlay?
-
Autoplay was added in version 2.5. Make sure your current plugin version is > or = 2.5. IF it is, simply add the attribute “autoplay=true” to the shortcode.
i.e. [ylwm_vimeo autoplay=”true”]1234567[/ylwm_vimeo]
