htmlSerializer doesn't seem to do anything

[Phil (Phil Snow)]

Hi Mark,

Fares is out so I'm taking over this one for you.

Just having a look at your serializer I'm not sure I understand your use case. It looks like you are passing a youtube video directly into the HTML serializer.

This isn't the intended use, the HTML serializer basically takes the formatted text from the Prismic Rich Text field and converts it to HTML. So you could assign classes to every H1 tag on your website for example.

Can you tell me a little bit more about what you're trying to do. I see you were discussing embed dimensions in another thread. Is this related?

Any way to omit dimensions, or specify fluid ones?

I see. The solution would be to modify the fields once they're retrieved from the API in your application. Since these fields are specific to the video hosting site, in this case, Youtube, it is not possible to change the values that the embed has, and that is why they cannot be modified from Prismic.

Thanks.
