[Resolved] Photo not showing with embedded media

We are using the Toolset to present a locations page that has multiple homes with individual pages. I used the embedded media to publish a video for each page. Unfortunately, some pages do not have videos yet, so we are hoping to use a photo as a placeholder until we get videos.

I thought the embedded media would allow me to upload photos as well, but is it just for videos? I also tried inputting the image and it didn't look right (it was pulling the bottom row up).

To view the site:
username/password: flywheel/beaconserv

The page with the successful embedded media: hidden link
The page with the embedded media URL but not showing in frontend: hidden link

Attached you will find a screenshot of the values in the backend.

Hi Melody,

Unfortunately not the this will only allow for videos only.

What you can do is to use our conditional shortcode to check if the field is empty and display an image if it is.

Take a look at the link below to see how you can check if a Types custom field is empty.

Please let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Shane

Shane, can you help me figure out how to add this conditional shortcode? Where does it go? How do I install it?

Hi Melody,

Sure no problem.

For you scenario you will do it like this.

{!{wpv-conditional if="( empty($(wpcf-vimeo)) )"}!}

Image shortcode goes here 

{!{/wpv-conditional}!}

{!{wpv-conditional if="( NOT(empty($(wpcf-vimeo))) )"}!}

Vimeo Shortcode goes here

{!{/wpv-conditional}!}

Please try this and let me know if this was able to assist you.

Thanks,
Shane
