Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Featured Video Plus
The plugin is ready to go. Now edit your posts and add video links to the Featured Video box on the right! Plugin specific settings can be found under Settings -> Media. Theme integration If the automatic integration fails you can always fallback to either using the shortcode or adjusting your themes sourcecode manually: Shortcode [featured-video-plus] [featured-video-plus width=300] PHP-functions the_post_video( $size ) has_post_video( $post_id ) get_the_post_video( $post_id, $size ) get_the_post_video_url( $post_id ) get_the_post_video_image( $post_id ) get_the_post_video_image_url( $post_id ) All parameters are optional. If no $post_id is given the current post's ID will be used. $size is either a string keyword (thumbnail, medium, large or full) or a 2-item array representing width and height in pixels, e.g. array(560,320).
If the plugin just returns text instead of the actual video the pasted url is probably not valid or not from a valid video provider. Try inserting the raw embed code instead or check the docs to see which providers are supported.
Click the small media icon in the Featured Video input box on the post edit screen and upload your video or choose it from the media library. WordPress does not support all formats tho, check this table for details.
For the videos to be automatically displayed you need to define a Featured Image. Depending on your featured video settings this image will never be shown if a video is set. If your theme does not support featured images the plugin also has no chance of working out of the box.
Sadly not all themes work out of the box. Themes need to make use of WordPress' native Post Thumbnail functionality (specifically get_the_post_thumbnail() and/or the_post_thumbnail()) - these functions are where the plugin can hook into the theme and modify what is displayed. Consider contacting the theme's creator or modifying the theme's sourcecode in order to add the plugin's PHP-functions.
Take a look at your media settings and try using a fixed width instead of responsive sizing.
While the plugin tries to handle infinite scrolling automatically, it does not work for all configurations. In those cases you will want to manually call initFeaturedVideoPlus() using JavaScript everytime new articles have been loaded. Most infinite scroll plugins should have some kind of post-load hook.
