   Hello,

   I'm currently running WP locally, so at this stage I will not provide any links (sorry), and here is my problem: With some themes one can watch embedded videos on the main index page/starting page, but with some themes one can not. I of course fancy a theme in which one can not, so how do I fix this so I can?

   My index page code looks like this:

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   <div id="mid" class="fix">
   	<div id="mainCol" class="fix"><a name="main"></a>
   	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   	<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   		<div id="post">
           <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date"><?php the_time('M j, Y') ?></span><span class="comments"><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></span></div>
   			<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
               <h5><?php the_tags(); ?></h5>
   			<div id="mainEntry" class="entry">
               <div id="introIMG"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="Tips2" title="Read More :: Click here to read the rest of this entry."><img src="<?php $key="thumbnail"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?>"/></a></div>
   			<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" class="Tips2" title="Read More :: Click here to read the rest of this entry."><p><?php the_content_rss('', TRUE, '', 200); ?></p></a>
   			</div>
   		</div>
           </div>
   		<?php endwhile; ?>
   		<?php else : ?>
   		<div class="post">
   			<div class="postMeta"><span class="date">No Matches</span></div>
   			<h2>No matching results</h2>
   			<div class="entry">
   			<p>You seem to have found a mis-linked page or search query with no associated results. Please trying your search again. If you feel that you should be staring at something a little more concrete, feel free to email the author of this site or browse the archives.</p>
   			</div>
   		</div>
   		<?php endif; ?>
   
           <div id="more_reading">
   			<?php next_posts_link('<span class="navforward"></span>') ?><?php previous_posts_link('<span class="navback"></span>') ?>
   		</div>
   	</div>
   	<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/second.php'); ?>
   </div>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   Just to give more info.:

   (1) I can see only the link for the video that I have embedded on the main index page, but not the video itself. I want to be able to see it.

   (2) When I hit the link and get to the sub-page, I can see the video.
   Here is the code for the sub-page that works:

   <?php get_header(); ?>
   <div id="mid" class="fix">
   	<div id="mainCol" class="fix"><a name="main"></a>
   		<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   		<div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
   			<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title() ?></a></h2>
   			<div id="singleEntry" class="entry">
   				<p><?php the_content('<p class="serif">Read the rest of this entry &raquo;</p>'); ?></p>
   			</div>
   		</div>
   		<?php endwhile; else: ?>
   		<div class="post">
   			<h2>No matching results</h2>
   			<div class="entry">
   				<p>You seem to have found a mis-linked page or search query with no associated results. Please trying your search again. If you feel that you should be staring at something a little more concrete, feel free to email the author of this site or browse the archives.</p>
   			</div>
   		</div>
   		<?php endif; ?>
   	</div>
   	<?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/second-page.php'); ?>
   </div>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>
