Description:
This add-on connects GamiPress with Youtube, the video sharing community where users can watch, like, share, comment and upload their own videos. It adds gamification to the Youtube video watching that happens on your website, with the goal of engaging users to continue viewing more videos. It is intended for sites that already run GamiPress.
The integration introduces two new events. One event triggers when a user watches any Youtube video. The other triggers when a user watches a specific video. An important limitation applies to both events. The only Youtube videos that can trigger these activities are videos placed through the GamiPress Youtube block, the [gamipress_youtube] shortcode or the GamiPress Youtube widget.
The shortcode supports several attributes. The url attribute takes a Youtube video URL or ID. The width and height attributes set the player size in pixels and default to 640 and 360. The autoplay attribute accepts yes or no and defaults to no. The controls attribute accepts yes or no and defaults to yes. Videos embedded in any other way will not work, since the plugin needs the block, shortcode or widget to detect when a user interacts with a video.
The vendor’s own page for GamiPress – Youtube integration has the full details.
