Tubepress – Video thumbnails not loading consistantly in Chrome and Safari

  • I am using Tubepress to display YouTube video galleries. When using Chrome or Safari, the video gallery thumbnails do not always display. They always display properly with IE and Firefox.

    Problem: The main video always displays and so does the page counter. But often, the thumbnails don’t display. Selecting a new page (with the page counter under the main video) will often cause the thumbnails to appear. RELOADING the page will often cause the thumbnails to disappear. Chrome and Safari have this problem: IE and Firefox don’t (never).

    Please help if you can. Thank you.

  • I had exactly the described issue with Tubepress version 2.2.7 in Chrome and Safari on https://tinyurl.com/3rl82f7.

    On first visit and refresh the thumbs did not properly load. The HTML nodes were there, even including the image, though somehow the width on the thumb wrapper was set to 0px (as shown below), which caused the images to appear to be invisible/not there.

    <div class=”tubepress_thumb” style=”width: 0px; “>

    Fixed by setting a width for the thumbs in CSS, adding the !important rule to overwrite the set 0px width (which I think is calculated somewhere in the Tubepress plugin) like so:

    .tubepress_thumb {width: 130px !important;}

    Cheers

    P.S.: Jeff, have you managed to find a(nother) solution to this problem? I can’t seem to reproduce the problem on your site, although the link you posted goes 404.

    Hi,

    It was the theme I was using that was causing the problem. Switching themes corrected the problem. I am not competent enough to tell you what exactly about the theme was causing the problem.

    Sorry to everyone for not posting this sooner. I forgot that I had an open request for help.

    Cool ??

    Thanks, pimschaaf!
    Your solution solved my problem. ??

    Great ?? happy to help!
