post format filter

    Hello, this is a very nice and useful plugin!

    I need to make featured image from video thumbnails only for video post format. In the settings page there is only a post type option, and there is no post format option. I didn’t find this filter at the PRO version of the product.

    Could you, please, include this option?

    The workaround I use now is to change 296 line at the video-thumbnails.php:
    if ( $this->settings->options['set_featured'] == 1 && $this->settings->options['save_media'] == 1 && has_post_format('video') ) {

    I may add this option eventually, but I’d need to consider hiding the meta box on the fly when the post format is changed.

    Hello! Have you any plan to add the option? Or filter that I could use in my functions.php? It’s no good to change the code of the plugin at any update.

    Unfortunately I haven’t had any time to focus on this feature, but I do hope to include it one day.

    The good news is that I do have a solution for you to use in your functions.php file. I have not tested it, but I think it will work:

    function limit_video_thumbnails_to_post_format( $markup, $post_id ) {
	if ( has_post_format( 'video', $post_id ) ) {
		$markup = '';
	}
    return $markup;
}

add_filter( 'video_thumbnail_markup', 'limit_video_thumbnails_to_post_format', 10, 2 );

    Hello!

    Thanks for the filter!!

    But the code has a typo, an exclamation before has_post_format is needed, because we need to set an empty markup for posts which are NOT videos.

    function limit_video_thumbnails_to_post_format( $markup, $post_id ) {
	if ( !has_post_format( 'video', $post_id ) ) {
		$markup = '';
	}
    return $markup;
}

add_filter( 'video_thumbnail_markup', 'limit_video_thumbnails_to_post_format', 10, 2 );

    Thank you!
    I’m going to test it for a while.

    Oops, glad you were able to figure that out!
