[Plugin: Cool Video Gallery] Youtube video add to gallery not working

@nikolastheo

May I know the URL of the blank page you are redirected to? Also let me know your development environment details.

Hi, i have the same problem.

URL:
https://www.pgzeletava.cz/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cvg-gallery-add#linkvideo

Operating System : Linux (64 Bit)
Server : Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS)
MySQL Version : 5.0.95
PHP Version : 5.2.10
PHP Max Upload Size : 100MB
FFMPEG : Not Installed
[Note: Preview images for uploaded videos will not be created automatically using FFMPEG. Manually upload preview images for videos.]
PHP extension SimpleXML : Enabled
PHP setting allow_url_fopen : Enabled

This happens for me as well. Would love to know the solution if one is discovered. Thanks.

Please post the Video URL you are trying to add to Gallery.

Thanks,
Praveen Rajan

I am having the same problem…could it have anything to do with video size?

I’m having this problem too. Have checked with videos where embedding is allowed. Am running WP 3.3.1. Thanks!

I’m having the exact problem. After I try to upload a youtube video I’m redirected to a blank page and no video added to the gallery.

I am having the same problem here….its a real shame as the pulgin works great and looks fab…if you could only fix this glitch it would be the best page on my site!!

I am having the same problem, youtube videos cant added to the galery.
videos: https://youtu.be/WboTzGhq6bA, https://youtu.be/6sRtZKg2NTs, https://youtu.be/LV5ZBgk1Wmw, https://youtu.be/NLVxW18wTu0, https://youtu.be/pyBtKvt1_4Q

The plugin redirects me on the next blank page (url):
https://miveskonyv.hu/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cvg-gallery-add#linkvideo
and in the galery details: no entries found!

Please try to solve this problem! Thanks!

Same problem, except I am directed to a page with the following message:

The URL is https://thatwriterswebsite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=cvg-gallery-add#linkvideo

The plugin looks great, and it’s the first of dozens that does exactly what I want. I really hope you continue with it.

Wait. I might have just fixed the problem.

I neglected to see the

Example: Video ID for URL https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE7VzlLtp-4 is YE7VzlLtp-4

So the video I was trying to add, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ldrq6kO5go&feature=plcp

is edited to 1Ldrq6kO5go

And then it added successfully. Stupid mistake.

Once I did this, it seems to load. So, this problem solved. Will notify if any other problems are encountered.

Dear Mdeicke!
I tried to follow your description above, but no success! Does it mean I have to cut from the youtube video url the charakters beginning from the & sign? I tried it this way, no success. Then I tried to duplicate the characters from after the = sign (betwen duplicated charakters: is) like in the Example url, but the same problem. I tried with the other url of the youtube video, which you can see by edting your video, but also not works!
I dont understand how you made it?

But what I really dont understand, why Mr. Praaven Ryan doesnt help us, to solve this problem!

Thanks
