    This can’t be called as a CMS theme if one can’t even add a video in about or any other codable section. Any way to do it? I’ve tried everything, from using [wordpressYTPlugin][/wordpressYTPlugin] to <video>/<embed>/<object>/<iframe> tag. No use.

    Hello there,
    In WordPress to add a video all you need to do is paste the video URL into the post editor but here you want to use a video in a section which is not support videos currently.
    Hopefully, they will provide this function in their next update.

    Hey,
    I have one solution for you just add the following code in your theme’s functions.php file 

    $allowedposttags["iframe"] = array(
 "src" => array(),
 "height" => array(),
 "width" => array()
);

    Now you will be able to add videos using <iframe> in about or any other text field section.
    Let me know if it works.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    I just noticed that I can’t add images in the post. The only image possible is the featured images.

    Do I have to add the code stated above for images too?
