Full width video

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › How to … › Full width video

  • Cedric R. 9 years, 5 months ago

    Hello Foliovision team

    Aside from setting the pixel size of the embeded videos, is it possible to make them using the full width of the page à la Youtube ?

    Thanks
    Cedric

    Hello Cedric,

    are you looking for a way of embedding the video to your page to the header section, so that it uses the full page width rather than the article column content? We usually leave this duty to the templates. There are various themes which allow you to put up a video like that, just make sure the template supports WordPress Shortcodes and you can put in our [fvplayer…] shortcode without issues.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Hi Martin,

    I’m using the Divi theme so, I can easily create full width sections.
    I was missing a way to change the default size (in pixels) as specified in the sitewide Flowplayer defaults settings.
    I’ve just found out that I could add the width=”100%” option into the fvplayer shortcode and get the exact result I was looking for.
    For example:

    [fvplayer src="http://site.com/videos/video.mp4" splash="http://site.com/videos/video.jpg­­" width="100%"]

    Regards
    Cedric

    Hello Cedric,

    thank you for the tip!

    You can also just set the default size to say 1920 x 1080 px as it is setup to fit any narrow column while keeping the aspect ratio, so it’s a single setting which should work for your full width section as well as any video in content column.

    Thanks,
    Martin
