Hello. Tube style is being applied. 1. Vodi – TV Shows – Single Episode – Style(style1~6) *No style applied.
2. TV Shows – Add New – Choose Tv Show Style(only style1)
And are the two styles different?
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. Vodi options are global options that applies to all TV Shows that does not have a style chosen. TV Shows > Add New are styles for individual TV shows.
Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thank you for answer. Can style v6 of individual Movies be applied to individual TV shows styles?
Thank you for getting back. Movies and TV shows have separate styles and cannot be used for each other. You’ll have to custom code it.
If you have a developer, please reach out to our support, we’ll provide exact guidance on how to achieve it.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim

i want to purchase the theme my question is can i Customize the theme name to my Domain name
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in our theme. Do you want to change the name vodi to a different theme name? You can change all WordPress’s themes. However, it would make updating difficult.
Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
to add the website name
Hello again,
Thank you for getting back. Can you please clarify where you want to add the website name to?
Thanks, Ibrahim
Hello,
I’m getting schema error for the duration (movie time). That it is not in ISO 8601 time format.
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. Can you please try adding this to your child theme’s functions.php and verify for movies: https://gist.github.com/ibndawood/27a2fb67eb5bc1c925e968f233e0c7df
Let us know if this works.
Kindest Regards, Ibrahim
I have added time 1h30m
https://prnt.sc/9GdTw03Aut3tThank you for getting back. I think I’ve misunderstood your requirement. Can you please check with this updated code? https://gist.github.com/ibndawood/27a2fb67eb5bc1c925e968f233e0c7df
Thank you for the prompt response.
I’m getting the following result for 1h30m: PT1S https://prnt.sc/ZuGLgdqFpdWfI think the result should be PT1H30M (90 minutes)
I tried putting 90M but it is showing PT1M30S (90 seconds)
How do we fix this?
The solution you gave did not work well, so I made a change here: https://prnt.sc/_KJrgJFQuQI8
This did the trick, its throwing schema error, so maybe in the newer update you can take this into account? I have some more pointers which are creating schema errors, and hoping you can fix that too.
Lastly, I also wanted to change the following:
When you embed movie it shows WATCH NOW, I want to change the watch now to some other word, for example, Trailer or Preview, would it be possible?
Thanks! and sorry for many questions
Hello again,
Thank you for resolving this. The crux of the issue is that we need to convert duration from string to ISO format. We do not have a standard function for it and hence we need to rely on custom built function.
Please add this custom PHP code to your child theme’s functions.php to change the watch now text: https://gist.github.com/jmabbas/7801e819eb14d03cdc9697cd1820ba97
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim

Great theme!
Glad to be able to help. I also thank you for the additional code that you’ve written for ISO format.

I’m also unable to add the netflix streaming option, without add any text in the field, if I leave it empty, it won’t save and it won’t show
https://prnt.sc/0PfRM4R7KK2fI have sorted the above questions.
I still do have query about, adding sources to TV SHOW & using v7 (movie template) for TV Shows?
can I do this? Its awesome and wanted the whole site to have same template.

TV Shows currently have only one layout. However, there are multiple layouts available for Episodes.
Should you require to use the movies layout in TV shows, you’ll have to do custom coding. Unfortunately, we are unavailable for custom coding. If you are aware of WordPress template coding, we’ll happily guide you on how to achieve it.
Regarding sources, this feature is available for Movies only and not for TV Shows.
Hope this answers your questions. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thanks for the response, I’m aware of the custom coding, would you be able to guide me through it?
I also want to add sources to the TV Shows as for making a streaming guide, I believe it is needed. So was hoping if I could convert/duplicate the movies template for tv show and alter it to add Seasons/episode in the template.
So whole site will have a single template.
Thank you!
Thank you for getting back. Sources for TV Shows is not possible as by design a TV Show is simply a umbrella for episodes and I think we can add Sources for Episodes through custom coding.
I’ll speak with our support and tech team to see if we can provide Movie Template v7 for TV Shows.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thank you so much! I will be waiting for your reply 
Hello again,
Thank you for getting back. I discussed with the tech team and unfortunately it is not possible to add sources for episodes and template change without custom coding.
If you have a developer we’ll happily provide guidance on how to achieve it.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thanks Ibrahim, I do have a developer, please guide through it!
Please reach out to our support and let me know your ticket number. I’ll provide as much as information to your developer regarding template changes.

Would it be possible to integrate this theme’s feature with ZoxPress or any other theme? I’m very interested in the movie/tvshow single pages (use them as category for my other theme)
Anyhow would this be possible?
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in our theme. It is not possible to use 2 themes at the same time in WordPress. You can use the MAS Videos plugin which is an open source plugin used for managing videos, tv shows and movies. Ref: https://wordpress.org/plugins/masvideos/
Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thank you! I’ll buy this theme nontheless so I can experiment!

I applied the tude style. I’m thinking of implementing infinite scrolling on a video page by utilizing the ‘Ajax Load More’ plugin. 1. Do I need to generate a shortcode for ‘Ajax Load More’ and insert it into the ‘Video page’? 2. Couldn’t find a page to customize. 3. Any tips on how to apply ‘Ajax Load More’ simply?
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. The theme does not have an infinite scroll. However, you can use many of the infinite scroll plugins that are available.
The videos page is an archive page and is generated from the template. You need to use custom coding to edit the page. Let us know what exactly you’d like to achieve and we’ll try our best to help.
Kindest Regards, Ibrahim

I want to buy this theme.. My question is can we import the videos from Youtube channel ? or we have to upload the videos from wordpress only?
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in our theme. The theme uses WordPress’s core embed feature. You can simply import a YouTube video into the post. There is no import here.
Alternatively you can use the CSV import feature to import videos. However, there is no direct import from YouTube feature.
Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.

hello. tube style applied. Thumbnails disappear after thumbnail hover. It reappears after page refresh. I think it has something to do with the video gallery. How to prevent thumbnails from disappearing after hover? Is there something like disabling hover?
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. I am not sure if I understand your issue correctly. Can you please help me understand your issue with a screenshot ?
Please email our support from here : https://themeforest.net/item/vodi-video-wordpress-theme-for-movies-tv-shows/23738703/support with your website URL and screenshots of your issue. I’ll have our tech support look into this for you.
Kindest Regards, Ibrahim
thank you It was solved the way you said. Solution: Disable Jetpack Lazy Load image
Glad your issue is resolved. The reason why lazy load did not work is that the gallery of the video is dislayed on hover. Since lazy load is enabled only on visible images, the image gallery is not visible causing the issue.
Please do not hesitate to reach us if you have any other questions related to our theme.
Thank you for your always kind and quick replies. Is there a way to automatically get a thumbnail when entering a YouTube link?
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. Apologies for not responding earlier, we were closed during weekends. Please note our response time is 1 business day and we are closed on Saturday and Sunday which are weekends.
Unfortunately, the plugin does not have the feature to fetch the thumbnail from youtube. You’ll have to do it manually or rely on third-party plugins/custom code to achieve this.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim
hello. I applied the tude style. I want to show the number of views on the home screen and on the video single page. I have activated jetpack, but the number of views does not appear. Is there anything I need to do after activating jetpack?
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. The views count uses JetPack’s site stats feature: https://jetpack.com/features/growth/site-stats/
Please make sure you’ve enabled stats as explained here: https://jetpack.com/blog/how-to-install-stats-and-analytics-on-your-wordpress-site-with-jetpack/#1-getting-started
Once you’ve enabled, the views count should work.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thank you for quick response. If jetpack is already enabled, I am collecting statistics normally in admin mode. But I can’t see the number of views on the user page.
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 for you.
After reinstalling jetpack, it was resolved by logging in to a wordpress account during the installation process.
Glad your issue is resolved. Please do not hesitate to reach us if you have any other questions related to our theme.
Thank you for your kind reply.
There is an issue with that page.
https://koreandrama.com/person/seo-in-guk-2/1. Comment is not activated on the page.
2. I would like to add personal information on the left below the image.
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. To answer your questions :
1. By default, the person post type does not have comments. To enable comments, please add this custom PHP code to your child theme’s functions.php: https://gist.github.com/ibndawood/9ea4b9e7af0242fef64d0c0dfb8245eb
2. Please use the masvideos_template_single_person_content_sidebar hook to add your own content in the sidebar.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Thank you for answer. But I don’t quite understand the 2nd one. Where is the above item (masvideos_template_single_person_content_sidebar)?
masvideos_template_single_person_content_sidebar is the hook. You need to write custom code using a function and hook the function into this hook.
Thanks for providing a nice theme.
How can I delete movie playlists, video playlists, TV show playlists from the drop-down buttons on the top right after logging in? And how can I delete the above playlists tab from my profile page?
