Hey, What’s the best way to include YouTube Reviews in product pages? i thought Reviews, (or discussions would make sense), but it just falls in as a link…
How do I link to third party reviews too. For example, I got a review on Instagram too: I’d like to paste the text, write the name of the reviewer and link to the review. I could do this in a hacky sort of way by registering another account and commenting, but I’d rather do it “properly”
Cheers,
Chris
All good questions!
For the YouTube videos, we’ll update things to handle YouTube URLs as embedded videos automatically, and make that work in products descriptions, reviews, and discussion posts. We’ll work on that and get that update out soon.
For including external reviews, the only way to do it right now is to include it in your product description in whatever way you like. We’ve considered adding a way for creators to add reviews like this in a more standardised way, so we’ll look into that some more.
Okay, yeh that all sounds great.
Quick response, and a developer actually implementing suggested changes? UNHEARD OF! Much appreciated
This is now live for videos from YouTube, Vimeo, and Loom, as well as native .mp4 and .webm files.
If you paste a regular YouTube URL on a new line, it will automatically turn into an embedded video, both inside the editor and when displayed. Adding a URL inside a line with other text will retain the normal URL without triggering the embed.
