Tell us what you are trying to do?
The view template pulls in the post content (body) in a single field. The post content body contains an embedded youtube video. This is shown in the backend and also in the template but not on the frontend.

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

This page contains the embedded video, but it's not displayed. What you see is a custom field for embedded media.

For now, as a temporary workaround, I've added a custom field for embedded embedded media, and in the template, it pulls this in as dynamic youtube video. But, I'd be glad, if you could explain how the default post content body can display the embedded youtube video.

Please advise,
June

Hi June,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the site so that I can have a more detailed look at this one for you ?

I've enabled the private fields for your next response.

Thanks,

Hi June,

Thank you for the credentials.

Not sure why the youtube block that you're using wasn't displaying on the frontend, however our Toolset youtube block works fine. I've changed your youtube block to the one from Toolset and it is now displaying correctly.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
