Hi there.
I have a custom URL field on the registration form. But when I insert or update profile, the url of a YouTube video, Vimeo, it doesn't display on the frontend as a video, only as a link.
I tried with the video iframe, with other types of fields, but it didn't work.
Well yes there is no provision for iframe there as of now.
you can check this plugin if it has such custom field :

Hi Alex.
The plugin unfortunately didn't work. I will need to create the field manually.
Where is the profile fields creation file located? Or how can I insert a custom field in the instructor panel in the profile edit section?
Well its coming from buddypress .

Do you know if I need make some setting?

Ohh I see that you are using wplms version V4 with vibebp which does not allows custom profile field types to be edited and show right now .
What we can do is select the traditional url type field and we can change the behaviour how it shows at the front end.
Can you please share where exactly you want to show instructor video for the other users?

Ok this is possible with the help of the Member Profile Field block in elementor settings.
If you will use this block to display the field we have a filter on it which we can convert the url to iframe .
Please confirm if the page you have is craeted using the elementor member layout .
Hi Alex.
Yes, I'm using elementor for the members profile page, but I haven't found how to turn the url into an iframe.
please try adding this given code in your wplms-customizer.php file in wplms customizer plugin :
add_filter('vibebp_profile_field_block_value',function($value){
if(strpos($value, 'https')!==false){
global $wp_embed;
$value = $wp_embed->run_shortcode('[embed]'.$value.'[/embed]');
}
return $value;
});
and in textarea field user just need to put url
Hi Alex.
This worked. But the fields "Social" change for html elements too.
Believe need to create an "if" for Social fields.
in such case I would need the id of that field in which video url will be entered :
