◆ Tell us what you are trying to do?

I added Embedded media to Custom User Field.
And I added this short cord to Author archive(WordPress Archive).

` [types usermeta='sp_youtube_embeded' width='300' height='100' user_is_author='true'][/types]`
` [types usermeta='sp_youtube_embeded' output='raw' user_is_author='true'][/types]`

◆ Is there any documentation that you are following?
I read this documentation.
https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/functions/#embedded-media
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/displaying-a-youtube-video/

◆ What is the link to your site?
Could you give me a private ticket?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

To achieve this, you'll need a custom shortcode that can return the user ID of the author whose archive is being viewed. That ID can then be used in the 'user_id' attribute of the user custom field shortcode. You'll find the code example in this support thread:

In case this doesn't work, you're welcome to share temporary admin login details, in reply to this message.

Note: Your next reply will be private and it is recommended to make a complete backup copy, before sharing the access details.

regards,
Waqar
