hi,
(Ezrul Fazwan wrote me i should start a new thread)

i tried to imbed a youtube video with a block with composer it doesnt work. Now because i know JCE i switched to JCE as default editor.
I tried now three things to find the error:

1) In a first line I used the button "insert Video" outside JCE on the top (this line is shown in the editors line: [embed=videolink]{"video":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dI2__hlo-4&feature=youtu.be";,"width":"400","height":"225"}[/embed]

2) In the second line I used the button "Video" within JCE, select "youtube" and insert the URL.

3) In the third line I make a hyperlink to the Youtube Video

After save i saw that in 2) nothing is saving in the editor ( i see it when i switch to html view)

Result: 1) and 2) are not showing the Video inside the post when i use a menu-entry with: category/view single category
If you want you can see it on: http://www.fcstarkenburgia.de/junioren

1) shows the video when i select the post and let me show the complete article.
look at: http://www.fcstarkenburgia.de/junioren/d-junioren/d1-junioren/d1-news/d1-einlaufen-in-huettenfeld

3) worked, but i dont like use a hyperlink at this point: http://www.fcstarkenburgia.de/junioren

My question is, how can i get a video displayed on the category sight.

Thx
Otmar
Hi Otmar,

It seems like you are not enabling truncation for your frontpage listing hence the video will not shown. I've helped you to enable the truncation and the video is now showing up correctly on your frontpage. You can find the settings from your backend > easyblog > settings > layout > truncations, http://screencast.com/t/zySZmGiD

Hope these help.
