Hi, I hope someone may be able to help me, or at least guide me in the right direction.
I’m currently in the process of making a website, which basically acts as a tidied up front end for displaying a bunch of YouTube playlists… the site is an archive of presentation and graphic/motion design used by British TV channels, so I use YouTube for the hosting of the files then can use the playlists to group them together by which channel, etc.
So far, this has worked well, as I was creating single pages for each channel and using the Wix Video Small Slider to display the YouTube playlists (Here’s an example of one of my single pages), but it’s only tonight that I’ve discovered the 100 page limit (as I’ve now used 50 pages), so I’ve spent a few hours looking more into the CMS Dynamic Pages, which I have used for the pages where you can choose which TV channel page you want to look at, but not for the other pages as beyond that I was a bit confused about how it all worked.
I’ve now played around again with creating a dynamic page version, but the barrier I’ve now hit is not being able to use the Video sliders as part of the dynamic page, as far as I can see I can only do a single video, or use the URL of a playlist, but I imagine it would display in a single video window rather than the listed approach the slider provided me. This is my query, is there anyway of adding a YouTube playlist such that I can use it with the CMS collection I’m creating, and have it display the playlist AS A playlist.
Hope that makes sense, and hope that someone may have an answer.
Thanks, Callum
Hi, @Callum_Toyne !!
I’m not sure if this would be the right solution for your specific problem, 
but I think implementing something like an infinite scroll could work well. 
Infinite scroll is a system where, as you scroll down the page and reach the bottom, the next set of content (or data) is automatically loaded and added to the display. In your case, this would mean arranging YouTube video thumbnails in a repeater from your CMS, and as the user scrolls to the bottom, the next group of videos would load automatically. This process repeats, giving the impression of being able to browse the video list endlessly. If you’re interested in this approach, try searching for “Infinite Scroll” in this forum for more information. 
Thank you for the suggestion, had a quick search around, I couldn’t find much on the topic, but I’ll keep looking, and see what I can find elsewhere as I can’t picture how to I would go about doing that yet. With that idea would I still be able to use the YouTube playlists I’ve already created? or would I have to essentially replicate it within the CMS?
Another thing I’ve tried to have a go at unsuccessfully is adding some sort of playlist html or code (or something?!) to a rich content box, but I can’t see to find anything that would do that either, I’m also fairly novice with stuff like that, so I may be the one doing things wrong.
Logistically, It doesn’t matter to me whether a playlist slider is controlled via the CMS or not, after all I was fine working with single pages until I discovered the 100 page restriction. In an ideal world, it would be nice to simply be able to just toggle the visibility of the Video Playlists/Sliders based on which item/data set is being displayed.
Thanks again for the suggestion. So if I’ve understood right, would that method mean I’d need to basically create playlists through the CMS? In an ideal world, I’d like to be able to keep the YouTube playlists I’ve already created, also for the ease of adding extra videos to playlist as I’m uploading them, rather than extra steps to add them.
I’m guessing that my optimal outcome might not be possible, I’d essentially love to be able to recreate what I already made with single pages but by utilising dynamic pages as much as I can, I’ve spent the last six months on-and-off creating what I have so far, so I wouldn’t want to have to change things too much. Again, it’s only because of the 100 page limit I’m having to make the change as I can imagine my final product (and beyond) would more than exceed that amount of pages.
I get that the point of dynamic pages is to populate a template with differing information based on what you’ve put in the CMS, but I think what I want to get out of it would require a little more flexibility with options to display non-dynamic elements based on the items being displayed.
Got some free time again, so trying again with finding a solution to my problem,…
I’ve stumbled upon this thread Add static, unique, content to a single dynamic page - #6 by Lukas_Gook , but could this be a possible work around if it was tweaked a bit? Again, I’m not that clued up on code, but I’m willing to have a go…
So I’ve got my dynamic page, and for example two items set up, let’s call them Item A and Item B, if I set up two sections… Section A above Section B, could the code work to get
Section A to appear with Item A,
and Section B to appear with Item B?
Also, if it makes a difference, my site is on the Wix Website Editor rather than Wix Studio.
I don’t think it necessarily has to be infinite scroll. A simple setup would be to place a repeater, add a video element inside it, and then connect the repeater to a collection through the editor. You can also add a pagination element and link it to the same collection. That way, for example, you could load items (including video URLs) in batches of 50, and if there are more videos, users can click on the page numbers in the pagination to load the next batch of 50 videos. This way, videos can be loaded and viewed without limitation.
