Wrapping text around video

Hi folks

I’m building my company’s website with your Vantage theme.

I’d like to put some video in some pages (and that’s not a problem), but when I try to wrap text around a video, does not work.

I’m using this code

… your embed code here …

putting the style for that newly created div in my Stylesheet

#video-wrap {
float: left;
margin: 0 20px 5px 0;
}

any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Ciao

    the code is
    … your embed code here …

    of course

    Hi Nicola

    Thanks for running Vantage.

    If you’re using Page Builder I’d suggest trying to insert your video using the Visual Editor widget. To get access to that widget first install: http://wordpress.org/plugins/black-studio-tinymce-widget/.

    Remember that any edits to theme files will be lost during theme updates. For CSS try a plugin like Simple Custom CSS.

    Please see the necessary code wrap instructions below the text box if you’d like to try paste code again.

    Hi Andrew

    Thanks a lot for the prompt answer.

    I’m still having problem or maybe I don’t know how to solve it.

    But let’s go in order. I’ve installed and activated the black-studio-tinymce-widget. After that I tried as you suggested to insert a video with the Visual Editor. (by the way once I activated this, should I have anything different from the button “Add Media”?

    Through this button, I can insert a video with a simple URL link or with the embedding code.
    In the first case the video appears in the page in its natural size from youtube. In the second case, it’s smaller in appearance, I can move it around, but it does not wrap the text around it. When I preview the changes, nothing happens. I have 2 video in their natural full size, and the embed code I chose has size of 300×225, but the result it’s the same of the other video, that is size = 560 x 315.

    Do I have to add any code to let black-studio-tinymce-widget works properly and if yes what code should I add in the CSS file?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Andrew

    it looks like I solved the problem. I’ve installed a new plugin Viper, and added the code text to contain the embedded video :

    <div style="float: LEFT; margin: 0 15px 5px 0;">
embedded video url
</div>

    Glad to hear you found a solution that works for you. Thanks for sharing.

    (To confirm, once Black Studio is installed you can use it by inserting the Visual Editor Widget, not to be confused with the Visual tab).

    Thanks again for sharing.
