[resolved] Videos from youtube are not loading (14 posts)

    Hi

    Great plugin, I have downloaded and installed correctly. However, when I add my user/author for the youtube account none of the videos are loading. Does it take a while for them to load? Am I missing something here? It would be great if there was better documentation on the usage.

    thanks

    did you make sure not to enter any white space around your user name? There is currently a bug where that leads to the user not being recognized, unfortunately.

    I just re-entered my username without any white space and that did not seem to work. Any other ideas? Do the videos upload right away usually or does it take a while? Or is there anything else that I need to do within my youtube account?

    thanks again

    Now press the button "update videos from channels" and it will pull them.

    I certainly did that, I pressed it many times and it's still not loading the videos.

    Did you press "Add new author" first and is the author in the list at the top?

    Hi silviapfeiffer1 I too am having that problem. No whitespace around my username in YouTube etc. I've also tried on two different blogs... one with the out of the box Kubrick theme the other with Solosreams' WP-Clean. Press update videos from channel and get Found 0 videos. I've got 25 that I uploaded today

    Videos that are uploaded today will not yet be in the youtube feed, so cannot be extracted yet. Give it a day and see if they appear tomorrow.

    I've also got several dozen from a week ago that aren't showing up.

    well, it's only tested until 3.0 . I will have to get back to it.

    I've tested on current wordpress 3.1.1 and it all works for me. Are you still having problems?

    there is a new plugin version which removes whitespace from author names - I think that caused most of the problems.
