playlist thumbnails as start

  • Hi Frank,

    Fantastic plugin…love it!
    Is there a way the player opens with the thumbnail list instead of a big red player button? It’s in my sidebar on the right.

    Thanks

    A list of all thumbnails of videos in the playlist would not be possible @yardieyush, but you can style (with CSS) the player not to display the big red button and you can use the API (lyte_filter_widget_thumb filter) to set the thumbnail to any image of your liking.

    The reason you’re not seeing a thumbnail to begin with, is (probably) because you did not enter a YouTube API key, in which case Lyte cannot interface with YouTube to get info on the playlist (or video) and for playlists there is no easy to guess URL to a thumbnail …

    Hi Frank,

    I’ve tested the API key in the settings, it was ok.

    OK, you will now want to empty Lyte’s cache to allow it to (re-)fetch the data from YouTube. after that the correct thumbnails _should_ appear.
