FV Player won't center video when using Optimizepress 2

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › FV Player won't center video when using Optimizepress 2

  • magentawave 9 years ago

    I read your article about using the player with Optimizepress 2 https://foliovision.com/2014/04/flowplayer-fixes-optimizepress. I installed and activated the latest version of FV Player on a site built with Optimizepress 2. I copied most of the FV Player settings from another site that was NOT built with OP2 and this is what’s going on…

    PROBLEM:
    The video won’t center on the page even though the FV Player settings > Player Skin are set to Centered and the video is set to Centered in the OP video element. The Centered setting places the video on the left of the page. You can see that here:
    https://www.evernote.com/l/Ag6Uh18i53RJAr3dD_7BUv6CtBirJSrQskU

    This is an S3 hosted video with the setting in the OP video element as “URL.” I tried a Youtube video and it was centered on the page like it should be. The problem is with the “URL” setting and S3 hosted video.

    I also tried inserting an OP text element in the hopes that the little FV Flowplayer icon would appear in the menu but it wasn’t there.

    Got any ideas how I can fix this?

    Thank you.

    Hello magentawave,

    could you please post the URL where we can see this issue live? Otherwise it’s hard to figure this out as Optimizepress is paid and we don’t have it.

    This shouldn’t be too hard to figure out once we can see what CSS rules are in place.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    You guys have a nice product that’s widely used and OP is a nice product that’s used too. Has anyone at your company contacted Optimizepress about having them furnish you a free copy for the purposes of testing? It’s worth a try!

    Thank you.

    Hello magentawave,

    I tried that, hopefully this won’t be a big problem to fix or suggest a fix to OptimizePress.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    So this is not something you guys can fix which means I need to contact OP?

    Hello magentawave,

    I mean I contacted them now, so we will see how it goes.

    Thanks,

    I contacted OP and this what they said to do – and it worked too!
    To center the video, please add the following line of CSS under page settings > custom CSS while editing the page using live editor :
    .flowplayer {display: block;}

    YAY!

    Does it matter that this error message still appears below the video when I open the page in the same browser that I’m logged into the WP Admin with?

    Hello magentawave,

    thank you for the follow up and posting the fix. It seems to be easy enough.

    The note which you see about OptimizePress is just for your information. If it’s too annoying, we can move it to the settings screen.

    Thanks,
    Martin
