Hey,

I tried using “YouTube Playlist” listed under visual composer but it asks for individual video IDs. I want to embed a whole youtube channel or a youtube playlist ( using playlist IDs) so that all the latest video gets added automatically.

Please help me with this.

Thank you.

Hi,

You could use the Video player element from Visual composer on your page – https://www.screencast.com/t/1BsIrrrCEjB and enter the URL of the youtube playlist – https://www.screencast.com/t/mwlw2eWNNyBp The result is like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/5rm1YdBI – https://www.screencast.com/t/QIxN9o9w2Nhb

Thanks

Agreed. The formatting of using the real VC Video Playlist (which is kind of misleading since we actually cannot use a video playlist) – with the video thumbnails along the side is preferred. With your screenshots you have to know to click on the icon to see the next videos – something a lot of users don’t know how to do.

This suggestion is no different than just embedding the playlist straight from YT. This would be beneficial – to have the PLaylist feature actually show playlists:)
