[SOLVED] YouTube clicks not counted anymore

Hello,

In my website japprecie.fr I've got weblink FLEXIcontent fields.
In one of them I fill a YouTube link.
Unfortunately, since one year or so, statistics of the clicks on YouTube links are always zeroes!

I was amazed by this, because it worked perfectly so far.
But I think I understand why: now when you click a YouTube link, no new Internet window is opened, but a specific YouTube popup.

Do you know if I can correct this one way or another?
- either count the number of times the popup opens
- or change a parameter somewhere so that the link opens a new window like previously

Regards,
HervE

Hello

if you select to add direct links to the websites then clicks are not counted

What is the configuration for "direct links" option in the field's configuration ?

i think a good option is to add JS to the links, and make an AJAX call to server to count a hit
and only after AJAX call is done to "follow" the link ...

Hello,

Thanks for your answer.

Here is my configuration of the field.


Of course I've set "Use direct link" to No.
Is there anything else I could set to achieve my goal? (I mean: set the click counting back again even for YouTube links.)

I don't know how to add JS and AJAX calls to the field. Is it complicated?

Hello

i see that
"video URLs" is set to "Playback" instead of links

in this case clicks are not counted , instead the video is embed into the page

That's it!

So I guess it was a new functionality which came with a version of Flexi, and not a change in YouTube like I first thought.

Many thanks. Problem solved.

Good night.
