    I have a couple of issues and need some assistance please

    #1 – Layer Slider isn’t reacting properly to youtube video. I set the global settings to autoplay and if I do that I only get a gray box with 3 dots. I understand that there is something about a starting image but have tried to set an image and may be doing that wrong. Im not sure. If I turn the global setting off I at least get an image of the first frame of video with the play button on top of the image. Now if I click the play button the video fades out when it plays. If i have the global setting set to auto play the gray box with 3 dots start up then fades out also. So I am presuming the autoplay may be working there. I’m not sure as I never see any video or image with exception to the gray box and 3 dots. I built into my youtube code the autoplay function. Do i need it in there if the global settings are set to autoplay?

    #2 – I have on my homepage a blog post section and the pagination if shows for multiple pages. If someone clicks on the pagination the entire page refreshes and then I am directed up to the top of the home page again. Shouldn’t the blog post just slide over to the next page of posts? This is a very inconvenient way to set a few pages of posts on the front page.

    Thank you for a great theme and attention to the issue.

    Hi W!

    How are you adding in the youtube videos to your slide?

    For #2, this is just how pagination works. The page the user is viewing literally changes to a second page.

    Cheers!

    Thanks for the reply,
    I am copying the embedded code from YouTube and pasting it into the DEV/VIDEO section of the slider.

    Here is the embed code:
    <iframe width=”260″ height=”190″ src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/ymUN6zCdCGo?autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=PLCOwq4HGHmPy69bOJqR-FoNl2WWS3FORm&shuffle=265&showinfo=0&controls=0″ frameborder=”0″></iframe>

    Interestingly enough the videos seem to stream and play properly BEFORE I click “enter preview” and also save the changes and preview the page. But when I “ENTER PREVIEW” I get the gray box with 3 dots in them.

    For question #2 – I suppose that would be a request for future updates to the template. If there are more than one page of blogs listed to have the page stay still and just paginate to the next list and not refresh the entire screen putting you back up to the top of the page to have to scroll down and find your place again.

    Try removing the playlist information. More like:
    <iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/ymUN6zCdCGo?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
