In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Showing Screenshots as Video ThumbnailsWhat types of video (YouTube, Vimeo, etc) are you posting? Are you running any other plugins?

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] vk.comI use using the iframe from the sample code you posted? Just realized it contains a “-” before the number after “oid=”. If you test it with the code akapellos posted it works fine, so I’ll release a fix sometime tonight for the “-” bug.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Reset Video Thumbnail not updating Thumbnail IDIf a theme’s functions.php file includes
add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );there should be a meta box for the featured image. Themes and plugins should be using this in combination with these functions rather than reading the_thumbnail_idfield directly.Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Reset Video Thumbnail not updating Thumbnail IDThe plugin doesn’t overwrite the thumbnail ID to avoid overwriting a manually created featured image. You’ll just need to remove the featured image before resetting the video thumbnail.
If you’d like to force it to always update the featured image ID, you can replace these three lines (267-269 in version 2.5.3) in video-thumbnails.php:
if ( !ctype_digit( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post_id ) ) ) { set_post_thumbnail( $post_id, $attachment_id ); }with just this one line:
set_post_thumbnail( $post_id, $attachment_id );I might make it an option to always update the featured image, but I didn’t think people would be changing video thumbnails very often.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Thumbnail is Generated after i Changed My HostIf the standard WordPress uploader is not working, the issue is definitely with something configured on your server. You may need to change the folder owner to whatever your operating system’s Apache user is named. I would recommend searching the web for upload issues in WordPress with the operating system you are using.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] ifttt.com code not working with Video ThumbnailsSo IFTTT doesn’t give you any way to customize the code being embedded? If not you’d probably be better off using a plugin to import your videos using the native YouTube player. The code you’ve posted won’t work on mobile devices and wouldn’t work at all if IFTTT is ever down.
I have my own Video Importer plugin but there are also options like Automatic YouTube Video Posts.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Thumbnail is Generated after i Changed My HostHave you tried manually uploading an image to your media library? It’s possible you need to enable write permissions on your wp-content directory.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Thumbnail not loaded until I press "search again"Just tested and Wistia seems to be working fine for me. So the content is going directly in the normal post editor? What other plugins are you using?

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] no facebook imagesDoes a thumbnail appear in the “Video Thumbnail” meta box in the WordPress editor? If a thumbnail appears there, Video Thumbnails is working properly.
When sharing a link to Facebook, it is up to your theme or SEO plugin to include the meta tags that tell Facebook about the featured image.

In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Video Thumbnails in VideoPress ThemeThis might work for you:
function custom_vp_video_thumbnail_markup( $markup, $post_id ) { $vp_meta = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'video_options', true ); if ( $vp_meta != '' && $vp_meta['video_type'] == 'youtube_url' ) { $youtube_url = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?' . $vp_meta['youtube_url']; $markup = $youtube_url . ' ' . $markup; } return $markup; } add_filter( 'video_thumbnail_markup', 'custom_vp_video_thumbnail_markup', 10, 2 );Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Video Thumbnails] Video Thumbnails in VideoPress ThemeYou can leave the custom field setting empty. Since it’s a paid theme and I can’t check out their source code, unfortunately I’m not sure if there’s anything else I can suggest.
It’s likely the
vp_metabox()function isn’t aware of what the current post ID is, so maybe the developer could tell you if there are any other arguments it can accept. If that was the case you might be able to use something likevp_metabox( 'video_options.embed_code', $post_id ), but like I said I can’t really tell you.Another thing to check is that in the code you copy/pasted is that the ‘ symbol is the regular one and not the curly ones, I just noticed when I copied and pasted from your original it was using the curly ones.
