I created a custom field for my products called "Video". The field is a text area. I would like to be able to load a wrapper module that contains a YouTube video with {loadposition module_name}. The loadposition doesn't work in these fields. Another option is to embed the video using YouTube's embed code, but the field strips out any scripts or iframes. How can I accomplish this, since the field does not have a WYSIWYG editor?

Hi,

You can do it by adding the youtube's embed code in the field.
Make sure that the option "Input filtering" of your custom field is turned off so that it doesn't strip out the script you enter in it.
