Hi there,

1. Unfortunately the theme does not support mixing posts with and without videos on page templates that are intended only for videos. The code in the video page templates are setup to only look for posts that have a video assigned to it.

2. Sounds like the edits posted above were not properly applied. Unfortunately I'm unable to troubleshoot customizations as it goes outside my standard support services. I'll have to ask that you review and make sure you're doing it correctly. Hope you understand.

3. Regarding sticky posts, what page specifically are you referring to? With the way WordPress has that feature setup, sticky posts only work on certain pages.

Best,

Christopher

Hi Christoper,

Just checking to see if you've been able to have a look into any of the above questions¿

Cheers,

Jordan

Thanks for the reply Christoper.

I'd like videos on the homepage but would like to mix these with posts that just have an image/photo. So when you slide through the posts on the homepage, with the arrows, posts with just an image appear but they don't have the 'Play' button over the image, plus keeping the bottom right text from the post.

The only way I've managed to do this at the moment is by using a 'video' post with no video linked - As it shows the featured image on the homepage but you still have the 'play' button over it.

If there's a way that when you don't have a video linked to the 'Video' post it doesn't show the play button?

Let me know if unclear?

2.
The above code worked for adding the sharing links to the bottom of the 'video' posts but has in turn removed the header and text from the under the featured image.

Is there a way of getting the social icons as well as keeping the header and text from the post?

3.
I've noticed that the sticky option for the post isn't working. Any newer posts that I've been adding are coming to the front of the homepage and not the post marked with the 'Sticky' option. Is the a reason for this?

Many thanks again for your help :)

Cheers,

Jordan

Hi there,

If you're trying to use the "videos" page template without videos, maybe it's better to just use the "gallery" page template for your homepage?

For category pages, try this...

Open archive.php and change the following on lines 238-249 from this...

if(!has_post_format()){
	if ( comments_open() ) {
		$commentsVal = get_comments_number();
		if($commentsVal == 0){ $commentsTitle = 'Comment on this post'; } else { $commentsTitle = $commentsVal.' comments'; }
		echo '<a title="'.$commentsTitle.'" class="post-sharing" href="'.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-comment"></i>';
		echo '</a>';
	}
	echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Facebook','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u='.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>';
	echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Twitter','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/home?status='.get_the_title().' '.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>';
	echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Google+','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url='.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a>';
	echo '<a title="Permalink for '.get_the_title().'" class="post-sharing" href="'.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-link"></i></a>';
}

... to this...

if ( comments_open() ) {
	$commentsVal = get_comments_number();
	if($commentsVal == 0){ $commentsTitle = 'Comment on this post'; } else { $commentsTitle = $commentsVal.' comments'; }
	echo '<a title="'.$commentsTitle.'" class="post-sharing" href="'.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-comment"></i>';
	echo '</a>';
}
echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Facebook','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u='.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-facebook"></i></a>';
echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Twitter','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://twitter.com/home?status='.get_the_title().' '.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-twitter"></i></a>';
echo '<a title="'.__('Share on Google+','vysual').'" class="post-sharing" target="_blank" href="https://plus.google.com/share?url='.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-google-plus"></i></a>';
echo '<a title="Permalink for '.get_the_title().'" class="post-sharing" href="'.get_permalink().'"><i class="fa fa-link"></i></a>';

Let me know if that works out.

Best,

Hi There,

Thanks for the theme.

Question 1 - Can the 'play' button not display when posts tagged as video do not have a video?

I'm looking at having the home page working like the "Video 1" option from the theme preview: http://premium.themolitor.com/?theme=vysual

1. The homepage template is set to "Video"
2. I would also like to have a post without a video display on the home page.
3. To do this I have posts tagged as "video" which do no have a video. Is it be possible to remove the 'Play' button when no video is uploaded/ associated to the post?
4. I have tried other options however, the only way to have a slider on the homepage is to set a post as 'video' - which displays the play button.

Question 2 - Category pages - can posts with the format 'video' display sharing icons?

1. On the category pages, only posts with the format 'standard' display sharing icons.
2. Can the sharing icons also be displayed on posts with the format 'video'?

Many thanks in advance for any help on the above!

Jordan
