How to redirect from the upload-video page login system to the default wp login page. For my site I when I go to the page http://jcmobile.co/mydtv2/upload-video/ I should go to the http://jcmobile.co/mydtv2/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fjcmobile.co%2Fmydtv2%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1 page instead of seeing this page https://prnt.sc/pwy5pf

Greetings. I wanted to buy this theme. I had the following questions before I do:

1. I really like the 3-column vertical thumbs mobile layout of the movies category page at: https://demo2.madrasthemes.com/vodi-demos/main/movies/ . Mobile visitors can see 12 thumbs in one shot so very less scrolling. It is really great. I have been searching for this for a long time. So I want to use this layout for my home page also. Is this possible?

2. Can I show this 3-column vertical thumbs layout for the “You may also like” and “We recommend” sections on every video post? Can I set the number of videos to be shown in each of these columns? What logic do they follow to show similar videos?

3. All my videos are portrait vertical videos .mp4 files. Will the posts show self-hosted vertical videos? I can’t find an example to check this as all videos are landscape youtube videos. I want to show a download link as well. Portrait videos are becoming so popular now on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and even on Youtube.

4. How will it embed my normal self-hosted html5 vertical videos? Will it use the html5 <video> code which I prefer as it works in all mobile browsers?

5. Is there a way I think the thumbnails directly to external links like the Link posts format in Wordpress? This will greatly help me to use this attractive front-end layout of this theme for urs other than videos too.

6. Is there a normal php or html template of this theme without the need to install Wordpress?

7. Can you please setup and send me the link and password to test the admin before i purchase please? I have sent an email to support with this request.

Thanks for such nice work and awaiting your reply.

Hello,

I just bought the theme, imported the demo content, and when I edit the homepage, I see the error: “this block has encountered an error and cannot be viewed” in the gutenberg editor

Hello there,

Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. Does this error appears only in one block or for all blocks. Can you please clarify ? Also please email our support from here : https://themeforest.net/item/vodi-video-wordpress-theme-for-movies-tv-shows/23738703/support with your WP admin details. We’ll look into this issue for you.

Thanks, Ibrahim

Hello,

We want to purchase Vodi for our streaming service. We have a couple questions:

1. Does this support showing movies / videos, etc. which are being hosted on Amazon Web Servers? If so, how do we add those movies?

2. Does this have storefront capabilities which will allow to list products, sell them, and ship them?

Regards, Darryl

Hello Darryl,

Thank you for your interest in our theme. To answer your questions :

1. The theme is built for WordPress and by default WordPress allows you to embed videos. Videos will be embedded using WordPress’s default video player. If you want advanced video players you can use any of the popular third-party plugins to embed videos.

2. The theme does not have feature to sell. You can use WooCommerce plugin for this purpose.

I recommend that you try this theme before purchase. Please email our support and we’ll setup a trial for you.

Thanks, Ibrahim

Does this theme have broadcast scheduling capabilities? To watch pre recorder or live streams of events which may be scheduled to watch at particular times?

Hello again,

Thank you for getting back. The theme does not have broadcast scheduling capabilities. However all WordPress posts ( videos are custom posts ) can be scheduled to be published at a given time.

Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks, Ibrahim

Hello, I have some pre-sale questions before deciding to buy the theme: 1. Does your theme provide the reports on the number of downloaded/ watched videos? 2. If I want to make a sale for each video separately can I insert a function in each detail product page? or can you suggest a third-party plugin that I can use for that?

To be more specific, for example, I want just to show the trailer on the product page (this part I want to track for the people who viewed it) and if someone wants to watch the full-movie they would need to pay for it in order to access the full movie (I need the “buy now” process to be here). Is it possible?

Thank you, Linh

Hello Linh,

Thank you for your interest in our theme. To answer your questions :

1. Our theme does not provide any reports. You’ll have to rely on Google Analytics or any other third-party plugins of your choice for the details.

2. Our theme does not have any purchase feature. You’ll have to rely on WooCommerce or WP Restrict Content Pro to allow your customer to purchase a video for viewing.

Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks, Ibrahim

Hello there,

Thank you for your interest in our theme. To answer your questions :

The theme has a history feature, liked videos and playlist. It does not have the other features you are asking for.

As regards member profile, the theme does not have this feature. However you can integrate with third-party plugins like Ultimate Membership Pro to provide these features.

Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks, Ibrahim

Hi,

I would like to know whether we can restrict some articles and videos to registered users? And how do the user roles work in this theme?

Thanks

Hello there,

Thank you for your interest in our theme. The theme does not have provisions to restrict users from viewing content or charge them for access. However there are many third-party plugins like Restrict Content Pro ( https://restrictcontentpro.com ) or Ultimate Membership Pro ( https://codecanyon.net/item/ultimate-membership-pro-wordpress-plugin/12159253 ) which will allow you to attain this functionality.

Hope this clarifies. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help with the theme.

Thanks, Farook

Chris

Hello there,

Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us.

- You can create TV Shows and embed youtube videos in theme.

- We provided demo xml data with theme.

- When you import our dummy data you’ll have a website similar to this : https://demo.madrasthemes.com/vodi/ which has placeholder images instead of actual images. We do not have the right to distribute the images, we only have the right to use them commercially. Hence our dummy content will contain only placeholder images instead of actual images. Actual images take lot of time to import and usually breaks the importer causing error 500 and other issues. Also your website could be slapped with a DMCA notice in future if they find out about using copyrighted images. It is safer, better and faster to use placeholder images instead of actual images.

- Website setup is not part of our support policy. However we help all our customers one time with theme setup.

- We provide offline documentation within theme package. You can also read documentation here : https://docs.madrasthemes.com/vodi/

Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.

Thanks, Farook

Hi again,

I know the blog page has a full width (both narrow and wide) and a sidebar format.

The present blog with sidebar format is like this in the demo:

https://demo2.madrasthemes.com/vodi-demos/main/2019/05/01/world-starts-with-word-peace/

I was wondering how I can have the sidebar format while still having the body of the blog centered like in this:

https://kinsta.com/blog/wordpress-5-3/

Hello there,

Thank you for reaching again. Please add this custom CSS to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS :

https://gist.github.com/yousufansa/42c2c0ea385fbea96a6c89438cbc0bff

You can also add the code to your child theme’s style.css.

Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
