Help, I am trying to use the normal tubepress shortcode to work in WP Bakery's Visual Composer, but while it works (that is, it properly shows the videos, no other content below it will display.

 

 

Here is what it looks like on the actual page:

Hello Robert,

 

Can you provide a link to a page where you are having this issue so I can take a look and troubleshoot?

 

Thanks!

Hey.

 

I'm getting exactly the same using Visual Composer and TubePress.

 

here's a link to the page in question: http://bluehouseprod...deo-production/

 

Here is Theme.Co X Support answer to a previous inquiry about this:

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Hi CLovis,

 

It appears that you are not using TubePress on your site anymore.

 

If you would like us to troubleshoot, you must have a  tubepress shortcode somewhere on your site.

 

Thanks!

[Clovis Delmotte]

I am still using TubePress everywhere on my site. I just removed it from the spots that were breaking it.

 

Let me duplicate the page and restore tubepress.

Here you go. ^

 

There's suppose to be more elements bellow the TubePress but they aren't showing up. Additionally, the tubepress isn't centered or loading in the container it's suppose to.

Hi Clovis,

 

It appears that your theme is placing the tubepress div outside of the appropriate div.  Are you using the visual or text editor for placing the [tubepress] shortcode?

 

Thanks!

[Clovis Delmotte]

I'm pasting it in the text editor but I know I've tried both in Visual Composer.

 

Thanks,

C

Clovis,

 

The [tubepress] shortcode works perfectly on thousands of peoples pages with hundreds, if not thousands of different themes.  If TubePress did not 'follow the standard embedded of its evaluated content' then it wouldn't be used by people, because it wouldn't work right.

 

If you are willing, you can PM me some credentials to look at your site along with the link and I'll take a look internally and see if I can find an issue.

 

Thanks!

First and foremost, thank you for all your help up to this point.

 

I know TubePress does an excellent job (reason we picked it) and is used across thousands of sites and themes side by side to other plugins. I'm not here to argue to make blunt statements like TubePress is coded badly, etc.... This is a conflict between two different plugins which has apparently happened in the past for other users.

 

I'm going to PM you Cred's and the address so you can take a look at it.

 

 

Thanks for your help up to this point,

Clovis

[Clovis Delmotte]

Sent you a PM.

 

If theres anything else I can get you.

Hey Clovis,

 

So the way the editor that you installed works makes it quite difficult.  TubePress creates two DIVS when the gallery is created.  There is the first DIV that has the player in it, and then a second DIV that contains the TubePress thumbnails.

 

The way your editor/theme works is that you place the shortcode into a 'text' area and that's the div.  So, TubePress's main video appears perfectly in this situation, however the thumbnails appear out side of the DIV that they should be in.

 

I am not quite sure how to fix this, but I have asked our Developer if it is possible.

 

Thanks!

I finally found what I believe is a fairly simple workaround. ThemeCo's visual editor seems to want at least one shortcode inside that text area, so I added an "empty" video shortcode next to TubePress's shortcode:

[tubepress mode="playlist" playlistValue="PL95E5965A678AFF8E"][video]

In my testing (thank you for the login credentials!) this puts TubePress inside the div correctly. Please have a look at your test site and let us know.

[Allshookup]

I have tried the playlist solution and the video still does not resize correctly. It looks fine on larger displays but on mobile devices half the video player is cut off.

 

Here is a link to the development site.

If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

[brandon]

Allshookup, is this issue related to the original post?

 

If not, could you please start a new post and put as much detail about the issue as you are having so as to better assist us in troubleshooting. Also, please ensure that you have TubePress Debugging enabled.

 

Thanks!

Hey all - I'm running into this problem as well.

 

The problem only occurs if [tubepress] is the last piece of text in the row. If there's anything after the shortcode, it works totally fine and gets put in the correct spot. The workaround posted by Eric does work, but is there going to be an actual fix for this? Tubepress is clearly doing something out of the ordinary while outputting the shortcode content. 

 

I've mapped the [tubepress] shortcode to a VC element and that works fine, meaning that it outputs the content of the shortcode but still goes in the incorrect spot if it is the last piece of text in the row. I tried getting around this by mapping the Tubepress VC element to my own shortcode that simply served as a wrapper for [tubepress][video]. (Code below) This resulted in WordPress, for some reason, not evaluating the [tubepress] shortcode while it did evaluate the [video] shortcode.

function tubepress_output( $atts ) {
	
	$output = do_shortcode('[tubepress][video]');
	return $output;
	
}
add_shortcode( 'tubepress-test', 'tubepress_output' );

As Clovis said, I do like using Tubepress but I do believe it's doing something 'strange' with the shortcode output.

 

I can give links as needed.

Brett,

 

You can submit a bug/feature request here: https://github.com/t...els/enhancement

 

Thanks!

I just had a client contact me with this problem too. Same X theme. Not sure if it's the way the theme implements Visual Composer, or if it's just the Visual Composer + TubePress combination. But either way, it's definitely not ideal to add a [video] shortcode after each, though it does work.

 

EDIT: was this added as a feature request or anything? I'd like to add my +1 to that feature request.

[brandon]

hello tevya,

 

the feature request can be found here: https://github.com/t...ress/issues/600

 

thanks!

This has been resolved in TubePress 4.0.3. TubePress now uses add_shortcode and the rest of the shortcode API, so it should integrate perfectly with other WP plugins and themes.

You can download the free trial from here or TubePress Pro from here.
