Nevermind. I had multiple databases in SQL, and I removed that line from the wrong one. Once I looked in wp-config.php to identify the correct database, I removed prli_db_version and it’s working again. Old ones seem to be lost though. Oh well.

I guess the new question would be: “Where Can I find old links stored?” I can look through backups to see if I still needed anything.

Thanks. I am not sure how much you need to add in that Quick Edit box, but as I mentioned, I went through 100+ videos one by one, just to ensure that Autoplay was set to None. Pain in the a$$.

Absolutely, that would be a wonderful addition. I’ve just been through re-coding my entire website fixing the core full screen issue on Macs (that required the lightbox). So while it sucks that I just finished fixing on my side, I would offer the solution is not visually appealing, and I would happily re-code the pages that required this change.

6 month later followup: I had a coder properly look at the original issue, and fixed it per suggestions above. However, like Kirah, I experience the same 1st video loop.

Personally, I just gave up and listed all the (software tutorial) videos individually. The issue then came from Mac vs. PC. I originally made Tiny 300×200 thumbnails to click on, expecting people to go full screen.

PC would go full screen of browser window (as desired). Mac unfortunately goes full screen and blacks out the other monitor. Then the viewers could not follow along in their own software while watching my video. I was forced to make 640×480 thumbnails, and after listing like 10+ videos per page, it’s quite overbearing.

I have no solution to see small thumbnails, with video titles (preferably with descriptions as well), and have it play in it’s own window. I even tried a Lightbox that accepts HTML code, but it didn’t know what to make of the Flowplayer plugin code.

Thanks Ulrich. I’ll have someone look into it.

Is there a way to disable the triangle play button that overlays the video? I use thumbnails that have a big ghosted one embedded. The one with the plugin overlaps my white text, making it hard to read.

Thanks, I learned something new today, never heard of the term minify before, as I am not a coder. I put code into Admin.css, minified and put into admin.min.css and it’s working fine now. Thank you.

Now if I could just figure out why your code works on osx/firefox, where everything else I have tried fails, I would be all set.

Screenshot of this Flowplayer Plugin messing up the code for Yoast SEO. I have also let them know about it. When I disable yours, theirs returns to normal.

Without a Video SEO Sitemap, Google does may know I have a video on the page, but it does not know what thumbnail to use, or how long the video is. When there is one, it shows an icon in the google searches, with a time attached. Just like they do for YouTube videos.

Your plugin places all the video information in the SQL database, so it only translates when the page is created. None of the Video Sitemap Plugins I tried will even know there is a video.

With the code above placed in, and 3 lines in the header, I am able to display the correct information for the Sitemap to do it’s thing.

Here is the funny part though. At this point, I have 99% no need for your plugin anymore, as disabling it still allows for Flowplayer to work on nearly every browser I have thrown at it, even mobiles.

However, it simply wont display on Mac with Firefox, unless I enable your plugin too. While this sounds amazingly strange, I have the same bug when using VideoJS. It started with one of these “automatic” updates, most likely WordPress going to 3.8 I think it was. Suddenly, my entire site broke, and I was scrambling around tying to find the cause and solution.

I liked your plugin, and liked the clean code in the post, and very easy to teach an assistant to do this, but without any SEO support, it’s kind of a killer to me. I tried to get Yoast to suppoort, but they just shrugged at me. Bummer.
