Featured Video

Could you link me to an example?

Most likely, there is a Javascript error on the front-end of the site disrupting the video embed, but I will need to check out the page with my debugging tools to be sure.

Please see this staging site.

While you’re there, perhaps you could also let me know why the sticky header (primary menu only) keeps disengaging and floating in the middle of the page? But it probably won’t do it now you’re watching.

Many thanks.

I’m getting 404 errors for all the files from the CDN cache right now so I wasn’t able to debug the video issue yet: https://screenshot.competethemes.com/5zudG2GP

As for the header issue, try adding this CSS to the site:

.is-sticky #menu-primary-container {
  top: 0 !important;
}

Please copy and paste that code into the Additional CSS section in the Live Customizer (Appearance > Customize), and it will take effect right away.

Thanks for the CSS snippet for the header issue. It seems a little erratic but let’s hope it works in the long run. Is there anything I can do to help you solve the other problem?

Sure thing! Let me know if the header keeps acting up and I will see what else I can do.

It looks like this code in the custom CSS is hiding the Featured Images on all pages which includes the Featured Video on the homepage:

.page .featured-image { 
  display: none; 
}

There are a few ways this can be re-written, but this should work nicely:

.page:not(.home) .featured-image { 
  display: none; 
}

That will keep the Featured Images/Videos hidden on all pages excluding the homepage.

Hi there,

I can no longer access the ‘customise’ area of your theme. Could it be ‘Simone’ our latest WordPress update? Our site is now live at https://blackgayblog.com if this will help.

Cheers.

Okay, Ben, I see now an inability to access the customise area is a conflict with my Ads Pro Plugin – Multi-Purpose WordPress Advertising Manager (https://codecanyon.net/item/ads-pro-plugin-multipurpose-wordpress-advertising-manager/10275010). Do you know anything that does the same job or better?

Otherwise, still having problems with the featured video function although I’ve added the custom CSS you’ve suggested.

Cheers

I see what’s happening with the CSS. This adjustment will fix it:

body.page:not(.home) .featured-image { 
  display: none; 
}

As for the plugin recommendation, these two are very popular choices:

https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/ad-inserter/
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/advanced-ads/

The interface in Ad Inserter is a bit ugly, but once you learn how it works, it’s quite powerful.

Featured video working fine now, Ben, as is the sticky menu. Thanks for the ad manager recommendations.

Cheers

Awesome! That’s great to hear, and thank you for such a nice review ??
