Hi, I see an embedded YouTube video player, but no links to YouTube videos. Without any links, there is nothing for visitors to click on to launch the lightbox.

See the Demo link on the Video Add-on's page for an example of a video link.

Please provide an updated link if you are still experiencing an issue with the video add-on after adding YouTube links to the page, and I would be glad to reopen this ticket and take another look.

Thanks.

Hi, that is not a link, but rather a bare URL. WordPress converts certain bare URLs into embedded content (i.e. an embedded player in the case of YouTube URLs).

If you select this text (or any other text/image/etc.) in the editor, click the insert link button, and add a YouTube video URL as the link, then it will create a link on the page that will be displayed in the lightbox.
