    Hi Rishi

    Thanks for your support. So sorry for the hassle. I do see the same issue locally. I’ll log a bug report for the team to attend to ASAP.

    In the mean time you could perhaps embed using a Visual Editor widget. It’s possible, I believe, to set auto-play to true in the URL. Let me know if you need a hand with that.

    That’s a parameter in the YouTube options when using EMBED code right?

    This is it I think. I’ll try and see if it works.

    To make an embedded video play automatically, add “&autoplay=1” to the video’s embed code, straight after the video ID (the series of letters that follows “v/”).

    Here’s an example:

    So I tried it, but it’s not working

    Here is the code I embedded in the text editor

    <object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kFaJoPOzBpU&autoplay=1" /><embed height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/kFaJoPOzBpU&autoplay=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425"></embed></object>

    Using the HELP available on YouTube – https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780?hl=en-GB

    But when I go to the page – http://techydudes.com/test-video/

    It shows as white screen only.

    Almost there:

    &

    should be used when adding additional parameters but the first parameter needs a query:

    ?

    For example:

    <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/PjGkVCAo8Fw?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    Hi Rishi

    Just letting you know that I’ve managed to fix this autoplay issue. You should see an update for the Widgets Bundle coming (version 1.3.1) coming soon.
