I have to admit to being baffled.
I'm trying to embed a video (from my WP media library) within a WP post using the videobox section shortcode.
The shortcode section popup only allows two items to be configured - the section type, in this case videobox - and a unique id. There's no URL or other parameters such as autoplay or loop which are available within the Pagelines editor.
Whatever I put in the unique ID makes no difference to what is shown which seems to be a default video with stars or white noise on a black background.
I assume I need to define this ID somewhere else, or maybe WP has done it for me?
HELP!
PS This is the page source generated when a shortcode is added within the WP post editor
<!-- VideoBox | Section -->
<section id="videobox_1675853156" class="pl-sn pl-col-sm-12 pl-col-sm-offset-0 pl-sn-videobox" data-object="PL_VideoBox" data-clone="1675853156" data-level="0"><div class="pl-sn-wrap"><div class="pl-sn-pad fix" data-bind="pledit: true" >
<div class="video-highlight"><h3 class="video-title" data-bind="pltext: vb_title"></h3></div>
<div class="pl-video-box" data-bind="plcallback: { vb_autoplay: vb_autoplay(), vb_loop: vb_loop(), vb_controls: vb_controls(), vb_video: vb_video()}" data-callback="videobox">
<video id="280414138" autoplay loop >
<source src="https://www.handinhandmanchester.org.uk/wp-content/plugins/pl-section-videobox/default.mp4?r=280414138" type="video/mp4" />
No browser html5 video.
</video>
<script>
jQuery('#280414138')[0].load();
</script>
</div>
</div></div></section>
</div>
If I add a videobox section using the Pagelines page editor the page source generated includes my video:
<!-- VideoBox | Section -->
<section id="videobox_udvu4uz" class="pl-sn pl-col-sm-12 pl-col-sm-offset-0 pl-sn-videobox" data-object="PL_VideoBox" data-clone="udvu4uz" data-level="0"><div class="pl-sn-wrap"><div class="pl-sn-pad fix" data-bind="pledit: true" >
<div class="video-highlight"><h3 class="video-title" data-bind="pltext: vb_title"></h3></div>
<div class="pl-video-box" data-bind="plcallback: { vb_autoplay: vb_autoplay(), vb_loop: vb_loop(), vb_controls: vb_controls(), vb_video: vb_video()}" data-callback="videobox">
<video id="429558737" autoplay loop >
<source src="https://www.handinhandmanchester.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/HIHWelcome.mp4?r=429558737" type="video/mp4" />
No browser html5 video.
</video>
<script>
jQuery('#429558737')[0].load();
</script>
</div>
</div></div></section>
