How to show videos on Responsive Grid for Articles

Joomla! Extensions - Professional Subscription

I would like to know how to show videos in the Reponsive Grid, as shown in the demo here. Specifically:

1. Where does one indicate the link for the video (YouTube in the demo)?

2. Is it possible to link videos from another streaming service (e.g. Vimeo, Bunny.net)?

The documentation for this extension makes this statement:

Images/Videos
Select whether you want to show the articles images or videos. Videos iframes are retrieved automatically from the item description text.

What is meant by "item description text" here. I presume that the item is the Joomla article, since that is where the extension gets the items from. If that is the case, where in the article does one enter "description text"?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards
Bruce

Hi Bruce,

The 'item description text' is the Article text. For example you enter the following iframe in the article text:

The module will pick up the video automatically from the iframe and will display it in the grid.

Thank you. That is very helpful.

I would like to suggest that you update the documentation with the information that you have given me above. "Item description text" doesn't really mean anything in relation to articles, whereas if you state clearly "Article text", then it becomes clear where one must enter the iframe. It would also be very helpful to include the iframe example that you have given me above. I'm sure this clarification to the documentation will be helpful to many of your users.

Best regards
Bruce
