CodeFlavors

Hi,

At this moment we haven’t tested the plugin with Vimeo Live so chances are that the plugin won’t work with it.

Hi,

The CSS should be placed in your theme/child theme stylesheet. If you edit your main theme stylesheet you will lose the changes when you update; a child theme solves this issue.

Hi,

I notice that the archive page that displays your videos has this behavior: https://prolacrossetalk.com/category/video/

The plugin uses a WP filter to replace the featured image. After having a look at your page source code I noticed that, for the other posts, the image is doubled, which leads me to assume that your theme calls the featured image twice which causes VideographyWP to embed the video twice.

Here’s a screenshot for the code in your page: https://prntscr.com/t4vz0l and this is the image that is actually displayed into the page: https://prntscr.com/t4vzel

The second image is hidden using CSS: https://prntscr.com/t4w09z; apparently, it is used on phones and small screen devices. The downside is that VideographyWP can’t know which featured image is used and which isn’t.

A solution would be to follow your theme’s example and hide the second video using CSS:

.mvp-blog-story-img.left.relative .cvwp-video-player:nth-child(2) {
    display: none;
}

Hi,

After you successfully attach the video to your post you will see a metabox containing all embedding settings. From the settings you must choose to embed the video in place of the featured image: https://prntscr.com/t0kjvc

Hi,

I just tested the plugin with the default Twenty Twenty theme and everything looks good, embeds are working as expected.

You mentioned in your comment that the fields are blank. I assume you mean the fields for import. If this is the case, you must choose to “Attach video to post”, otherwise the plugin will import any information you checked (featured image, title, content) but if the video isn’t attached to the post the plugin won’t store any video information on your post and won’t embed anything. This is the option I’m talking about: https://prntscr.com/t00rxl

After a video is successfully attached to your post, the metabox for video query will look like this: https://prntscr.com/t00tob

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi,

Did you choose the option to embed the video in place of the featured image?

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, the plugin doesn’t scan the post content for videos. The process must be initiated on post edit screen, sorry.

Can you please give me a link where I can see this?

Hi,

The featured image is replaced by using one of WP’s filters. If the image isn’t replaced, most likely your theme uses its own mechanism of displaying the featured image and doesn’t implement the filter from WP.

You can ask the theme developer for more information regarding this issue.

Hi,

When you embed the video in place of the featured image, the embed is wrapped into a div element. This is the reason why the image is on the left side. Put this CSS into your child theme styles.css

.single-featured-image-header .cvwp-video-player {
    margin-left: auto;
    margin-right: auto;
}

Hi,

The posts in your page are AJAX loaded; the plugin can’t embed the video because it doesn’t “know” when the video is displayed.
Unfortunately, there’s nothing I can do to help you solve this. All I can suggest is that you should allow embeds on single posts, which will display the featured image in archive pages.

Hi,

It should be fine from now on. If you have other questions just let me know.

Yes, you are correct.

Hi,

Thank you, all clear now. I have seen this before: even though access to YouTube Data API v3 is granted in the App, this error still appears. I really can’t say why this happens, haven’t found an answer anywhere.

The only solution I found that works is to create a new App (not generate a new API key but create an entire new App) and use credentials from it. Aside from this, whatever I tried I wasn’t successful.

Hi,

Can you please tell me the message you receive when you test the key in plugin Settings?
