Youtube embed on Squarespace not showing if cookies rejected
If I use either Squarspaces video block for an embed or the code block using YouTubes code including enhanced privacy mode the embed does not display the video unless I accept all cookies
Is there a way to avoid this happening?
Hi,
thank you for reaching out to us.
This behaviour is normal if you use our Autoblocking feature, if you want to be compliant.
Anyway you can follow 2 different approaches:
- Show an automatic message in place of blocked scripts (for ultimate plans) https://www.iubenda.com/en/help/104812-how-to-display-a-notice-in-place-of-pre-blocked-scripts
- You can instruct the autoblocking to whitelist Youtube videos, as explained here: https://www.iubenda.com/en/help/153445-what-to-do-when-the-automatic-blocking-mode-is-blocking-too-much
For example by adding the attribute data-cmp-ab="2" to the Youtube script.
Hope this helps!
