Or use Widget Importer & Exporter plugin to import the example Widgets data

You can write your own function and place it into videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme is activated or your plugins.

Example:

if( !function_exists( 'custom_video_archive_columns' ) ){
    function custom_video_archive_columns( $columns ) {
        if( is_archive( 'video' )  )
            $columns = 2;
        return $columns;
    }
    add_filter( 'mars_layout_columns' , 'custom_video_archive_columns', 10, 1);
}

1. If you use Page Builder to build the layout, you can put the certain category ID in Category Exclude field, example http://puu.sh/aE4AO/f8e842d946.png

2. If you use the shortcode, you can use “cat_exclude” option, Example

[videotube_upload cat_exclude="1,2"]

With 1,2 is video category id.

Also the shortcode have cat_include option, this will ignore cat_exclude.

@media (min-width: 768px){
    #navigation-wrapper ul.menu{
        text-align:center;
        float:none;
    }
    #navigation-wrapper ul.menu li {
        display:inline-block;
        float: none;
    }

By default, Importing feature is unavailable, but you can use “Video Importer” plugin.

            return $post_link;
        }

        $post_link = str_replace( '/' . $post->post_type . '/', '/', $post_link );

            return;
        if ( 2 != count( $query->query ) || ! isset( $query->query['page'] ) ) {
            return;
        }
        if ( ! empty( $query->query['name'] ) ) {

JS Composer ( WPBakery Visual Composer ) plugin is bundled so you can’t update it automatically like as another free plugin as you know in wordpress.

Of couse you can update it if you purchase here, it require a purchase code for updating automaticlly, but no needed, I always attache the JS’s latest version in the theme.

If you want to have the latest version, send me your email address here.

Note: Sometime I’m late for updating JS Composer, cause I need to make sure it works properly in the theme.

1. Put this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme activated.

2. (Optional) put this in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS field for styling.

.nav-links{
    color:#fff;
}
.nav-links .previous-post{
    text-align:right;
}
.nav-links .next-post{
    text-align:left;
}

Just put this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme activated:

if( !function_exists( 'marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member' ) ){
    function marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member() {
        if( !is_user_logged_in() ){
            remove_all_actions( 'mediapress_media' );
            remove_all_actions( 'mediapress_media_pagination' );
            add_filter( 'aspect_ratio' , function(){return;});
            add_action( 'mediapress_media' , function(){
                print '<div class="login-required">'.sprintf( __('Please %s to view video','mars'), '<a href="'. wp_login_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) ) .'">'.__('login','mars').'</a>' ).'</div>';
            });
        }
    }
    add_action( 'wp' , 'marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member');
}

Put this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme activated.

Step 3: Save Changes.
