YouTube Content plugin in product description

Hi!

I'm currently evaluating Hika Shop.
So far it looks quite promising that I finally found the Joomla Shop system which I need!

But for me it is essential that I can show YouTube videos in the Product listings - not just images.

So I use a content plugin for that where I write the tag in the product description.
Unfortunately it's not properly used. It just shows the tag.

But if I select the product where the same description is also shown the content plugin works fine.

I already tried the workaround trick from that one post where somebody had a similar problem with the category description 10 months ago, but this seem not to work for me.
I tried using this:
Code:
echo preg_replace('#<hr *id="system-readmore" */>.*#is','',JHTML::_('content.prepare',$this->element->product_description));
instead of this:
Code:
echo preg_replace('#<hr *id="system-readmore" */>.*#is','',$this->row->product_description);
in the Product list_img_desc

I'm using the ThaiCodeGear YouTube Player content plugin as it is from my knowledge the only one which is directly implementing the YouTube player into Joomla.
I need the direct player from YouTube and not just any Flash Player.
So RokBox is not working for me. Also I realized that it has the same problem.

This is how my code looks like in the product listing:
Code:
<!-- PRODUCT NAME --> <span class="hikashop_product_name"> <a href="/index.php/hs-categories/product/1-anibal/category_pathway-12"> Anibal </a> </span> <!-- EO PRODUCT NAME --> </h2> <!-- PRODUCT DESCRIPTION --> <div class="hikashop_product_desc" style="text-align: center;"> {tcg_youtube|view=FXf46N217Wg} </div> <!-- EO PRODUCT DESCRIPTION --> </div>

... and here when the product is selected:
Code:
</div> <div id="hikashop_product_bottom_part" class="hikashop_product_bottom_part"> <div id="hikashop_product_description_main" class="hikashop_product_description_main"> <iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/FXf46N217Wg" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="240" width="400"></iframe> </div> <span id="hikashop_product_url_main" class="hikashop_product_url_main"> </span> <div id="hikashop_product_files_main" class="hikashop_product_files_main"> </div> </div>

Does it has something to do that the plugin is creating an iframe ??? :huh:

Thanks for your help!

Best,
Jan.

:laugh: Yeeeaaa!

Actually I have not much idea about PHP programming but I found the solution!!!

The code line must be this:
Code:
echo preg_replace('#<hr *id="system-readmore" */>.*#is','',JHTML::_('content.prepare',$this->row->product_description));

IT'S WORKING !!! B)

Cheers,
Jan.
