When i add videos from vk.com thumbnails size on main page is different from youtube thumbnail. How to fix it? Thanks

1.Plugin is Video Thumbnails.

I have this problem only on main page(thumbnails from vk bigger than youtube) http://s018.radikal.ru/i525/1509/3a/6a7667bd81ae.png But i haven’t this problem on: http://boovoo.ru/video thumbnails are the same size http://s019.radikal.ru/i632/1509/73/7e47bcbd1970.png

2.Also, how can i make http://boovoo.ru/video show more videos. I try to make it in page builder, but nothing changes. Maybe because it shows video archive?

Hi,

1. Let me explain you more info, looks like you didn’t understand my mean, the theme uses different image sizes for properly displaying (why? because the theme was designed for that), this size (360-240px) is used for the homepage.

Look at this http://puu.sh/k3KKJ/fa5e26d78f.jpg

- The left image is youtube, here is original size (1280-720px), this is quality size and of course the theme can cut it in fixed size as I mentioned above (360*240px).

- The problem is belong to the right image, here is original size, it’s 320-240px, smaller than the default size (360-240px) so the theme can’t cut it, and of course, in this case, the theme will use the original size (320-240px).

This isn’t theme problem, it belong to your images, you should upload the high quality image.

And why this isn’t happened in the archive page? (http://boovoo.ru/video), this page use 230-150px, all images are larger than this size so the theme cut them, and of course it displays fine.

The archive page is default, and you can custom the number in Settings/Reading/ ==> Blog pages show at most field.

I hope that make sense.

It really helped. Thanks for good answers! I wrote to the plugin author, maybe he will fix it later :)

you can receive an email when you load a video?

Unfortunately the theme doesn’t has this feature but the free plugin can help, have you searched here?

The plugin does not work for the post waiting

I’m sure they have the similar plugin, or you can find here, otherwise I’m afraid you would need to find a freelancer who could help you out with that. You should take a look at Envato Studio: http://studio.envato.com/ they have great and affordable freelancers.

Thanks.

1. the carrousel widget doesn’t work. it’s not moving whith last videotube version http://i.imgur.com/zGFqbHt.png

2.what code can i edit in order to make it display the author like in the following image ? http://i.imgur.com/czYdD8I.png

Hi,

1. I just released V2.2, fixed this problem, you may upgrade once the theme get approved.

2. You can open videotube/includes/functions.php

Find this place and insert this code underneath it

$output .= '<span class="post-author"><a href="'. esc_url( get_author_posts_url(get_the_author_meta('ID')) ) .'">'. get_the_author_meta('display_name') .'</a></span>';

You may re-style the element.

I hope that helps.

If you make the browser window really narrow on a desktop browser, then the mobile interface will be shown. However, the menu dropdown doesn’t open when clicked.

I added the following code in the Chrome console:

        jQuery('.menu-item-has-children').click(function(){
            jQuery(this).toggleClass('open');
        });

This opens the dropdown and doesn’t seem to have any unwanted side-effects. However if the parent menu item has a link or a href=”#” the page will be navigated. For best results don’t fill in a link or # in the Wordpress menu editor.

Maybe you can have a look at this and try to make the dropdown menu work consistently across devices and screen sizes.

Also there seems to be an error in the code on http://videotube.marstheme.com/

Uncaught TypeError: jQuery(...).carousel is not a function(anonymous function) @ (index):350(anonymous function) @ (index):353

Hi,

My apologies for late replying, the menu works like that, actually I have no idea for how to handle the dropdown on both desktop and mobile.

Thanks.

Hi, on my video page none of the options below (comment, share, like, turn off light) is working, the boxes highlight but when you click the buttons nothing happens. Can you help?

Hi,

Please use the account you bought the theme on to write comments here, otherwise I can’t verify your purchase.

Thanks.

Hi, great theme… But I have issues with customizing to my taste… The snapshot of the theme made me buy it and I want my website to actually look like that… Take a look at my website here : www.funnyafricanvideos.tv

Kindly assist with the customization Please…

Secondly, the related videos have been showing only a particular set of videos… How can I solve this problem so that it shows different videos in the ’’related videos’’ section…

Kindly respond asap… Thanks..

Hi,

I’m not sure I can help with the customizing work but let me know, I will take a look.

Did you configure the related conditions as video category and tag?

Thanks.

Hello,

I have read a lot of comments, but do not managed to set up the Home page with content! As created a Home page using VT template. And when I preview the page everything fine as long as the page is not set up as Home page, because as soon as I set it up as a home page the content of the VT Template is disappearing and only the right slide bar remains! could you tell me what am i doing wrong! thanks

Hi,

Here is tips for how to setup the main homepage.

I hope that helps.

How do I install just the update?

Thank you very much

I tried that plugin but it says that the theme is not install but it is http://techtimeruuu.com I’m using the child theme

This plugin requires your envato username and api key, did you fill these info?

If you aren’t sure where is api, check this tips.

I hope that helps.

Hi,

Why you guys remove the function of inbuilt SEO function in the new update. In before version is available at(includes/Mars_Optimization.php) but i could not find it on new

Hi,

I strongly recommend you to use the SEO plugin, you may take a look into this, it’s great plugin I know so far.

Thanks.

Thanks for the update but it you provide it by default it will be useful because now you are forcing us to use Yoast SEO Plugin. But Consider it on next update.

Hi I use .video-options{display:none;} in the custom css to disable the boxes at the bottom of the video page. Is there a code I could use if I wanted to display just the turn off light box?

Thank You :)

Hi,

If so, please remove that and use this code:
.video-options .col-sm-3:nth-child(1),
.video-options .col-sm-3:nth-child(2),
.video-options .col-sm-3:nth-child(3){
    display:none;
}
I hope that helps.

Thank you so much, have a good day :)

Hi

I am having a hard time to inserting the video tags inside the page builder setting.

It’s not appearing and its says Ooops.. Nothing.

Can you help me out please.

Hi,

You would need to find the Video Tag ID, look at this example, the ID is 385 on the browser address bar.

I hope that make sense.

I am trying to just setup with a basic couple of pages and I cannot seem to figure out how to just add the upload form/register for a user to upload their videos. Thanks!

Hi,

Did you import the demo data? if so you will see the “Register” and “Submit” page.

Otherwise please read “LOGIN/REGISTER” section in documentation.

I hope that helps.

Hi,

First of all, Thank you for your great support. Here are some notices:

1- How can I move the title to the right, and the other things to the right [IMG] [IMG]

2- Views counter is not working [IMG]. How to fix it?

3- Is there a way to re-size videos/posts thumbnail that appears on the sidebar? I want to shorten the height.

4- Is there a way to add full width slider that shows posts, on the homepage?

5- How can I remove header search bar?

6- My website is RTL, How can I move the sidebar to the left?

BTW I tried your method for removing “video” slug and it didn’t work.

Regards,

7- How can I hide YouTube video title automatically?

Hi,

Regarding the question:

1,2 and 6: please share me your email address via this form, I will send the updated file.

3: Could you share me the site? I will take a look.

4. Did you take a look in WPbakery composer plugin, it’s bundled in the theme, can build something as slider … etc.

5. You may modify it at videotube/header.php

You should go to Settings/Permalinks, click on Save Changes button.
BTW I tried your method for removing “video” slug and it didn’t work.

7. Try here.

I hope that helps.

FYI: I just released V2.1, fixed a few RTL issues and updated WPbakery 4.7

Hope you like it.

Hi There. Is there a way to have 1. home without sidebar ? 2. To have custom widget . 3 – To have mani navigation menu on top of the header . Thnaks

Hi,

These can be done with page builder, did you take a look at the demo pages?

Thanks

I need to use this demo with teatured videos and 3 colums video post. http://videotube.marstheme.com/layout-with-4-columns-and-featured-widget/ Can you tell me how to set the home page. I ma trying but nothing

Hi,

This shortcode can be found in documentation, here is it:

[vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][videotube type="widget" carousel="on" show="9" id="video-widget-2720" rows="1" columns="3" title="Featured Videos" tag="385" orderby="ID" order="DESC" post_type="video" icon="none"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][videotube type="widget" carousel="on" show="16" id="video-widget-1037" rows="2" columns="4" title="Most Viewed Videos" orderby="views" order="DESC" post_type="video"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][videotube type="main" show="8" id="video-widget-1714" rows="1" columns="4" navigation="on" title="Latest Videos" orderby="ID" order="DESC"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

You would need to put this code in Page content (editor’s Text tab) and choose “Page Builder” dropdown.

I hope that helps.

Hi There

I reviewed all the comments to find out the answer to my questions, but couldn’t find a clear answer.

I Would like to know

1) Whether self hosted videos can be played on mobile (IOS / ANDROID) ? 2) How could users upload their videos? I used the demo, but over there it only gets video link (which presumably are youtube/vimeo). I couldn’t find anywhere else even on WP dashboard to upload the video.

Thanks

Hi,

1. here is mp4 file I uploaded for demo purpose, you can check it on your mobile.

2. Actually, the user can upload their video via the submit form, but I de-activated this on my live demo.

The test user is subscriber role, so of course you saw nothing in his backend.

I hope that make sense.

Hi,

1- How can I translate the theme. Is there any .po languages file or something ?!.

2- The menu still in the left side. How can I move it to the right IMG

Regards,

Hi,

1 Here is tips for how to translate the theme.

2. Please insert this css code in videotube/rtl.css or videotube-child/rtl.css if child theme activated:
.navbar-nav{
    float: right;
    padding-right: 0;
}
.navbar-nav>li{
    float: right;
}
Thanks.

I recently bought videotube theme. how eve,r after activating the theme and the plugins my site stop working giving a database connection error. can you help me and guide me how to fix the error please?

Hi,

My apologies for inconvenience, looks like something went wrong I’m not sure but I’m sure the “database connection error” isn’t belong to the theme, I’m afraid you would need to ask hosting support staff, they may help you out.

Thanks.

Please answer me, it would serve the function that counts the number of views, because I have to put a string of code that needs to be performed only when it increases the number of views. Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Not sure what do you mean but 2 functions for the View feature can be found in videotube/includes/functions.php

mars_get_count_viewed()
and
mars_update_post_view()

Hope that make sense.
