This is a Drupal module enabling the users of Flowplayer to include embed videos to articles.
Introduction
Provides a field type for displaying videos from Flowplayer
Requirements
- Composer
- Guzzle
Installation
- The best way to install the module is use the composer command
composer require 'drupal/flow_player_field:^3.2'
To determine the version is going in the bottom of the page and see (click) the newest version. - The second method is downloading the module and putting it in the modules folder.
[root]/web/modules/flow_player_field - After everything is installed we can proceed with the configuration
We still need to run composer install for the dependencies to be installed.
Configuration
- In order to enable Flowplayer we will have to login and go to
example.com/admin/modules and install the module.
There is a group called FLOWPLAYER and we should check Flowplayer Field and Flowplayer WYSIWYG. After we check those checkboxes we should scroll down and click the install button
- After the module is installed we should configure it. We can do that via few links.
- On the module itself by clicking the caret icon and clicking Configure
- In the configuration menu
- Or directly going to example.com/admin/config/flow_player_field and fill out the fields on the form
After we get to the settings screen we need to add the appropriate values to the required fields.
- Api Key
- Site ID
- Search results number (has default value)
- Embed code (has default value)
Now we save the configuration
- On the module itself by clicking the caret icon and clicking Configure
- The last step is configuring our CKEditor. We will do that by going to example.com/admin/config/content/formats and configure the editor that we want to use.

When we click the configure button we have to:- Drag the Flowplayer icon to the toolbar
- Check the Flowplayer WYSIWYG checkbox in the Enabled filters group
- Click Save configuration at the bottom of the page and we are good to go
- Now when we write an article we will have the Flowplayer icon in the CKEditor and we can include our videos
