Post Thumbnails problem

  • Hi I am using the Video thumbnails plugin and I am editing it to make it support Mpora.com videos aswell as the others it supports. I have done most of the work but have come unstuck on the final bit.

    The problem I have is that the URL for the video thumbnail doesn’t have a file extension which makes the plugin not find the video however when if I add for example ‘.jpeg’ to the end of the URL for example ‘$thumbnail = (“https://video.mpora.com/image/EIuyHpM2W/m/.jpeg”); it does find an image but there is an error uploading it i think. basically when I go to the upload URL it displays this:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>301 Moved Permanently</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Moved Permanently</h1>
<p>The document has moved <a href="https://video.mpora.com/image/k3jNpUohr/m/.jpg/">here</a>.</p>
</body></html>

    Making me think there has been some sort of error uploading but I don’t know what.

    Here is the code I have added to the plugin:

    // Mpora
function getMporaThumbnail($id) {
	$thumbnail = ("https://video.mpora.com/image/EIuyHpM2W/m/.jpg");

    return $thumbnail;
};
    // Mpora
		if($new_thumbnail==null) {

			// Find ID from Mpora embed url
			preg_match('/mporaplayer_([A-Za-z0-9]+)/i', $markup, $matches);

			// Now if we've found a Mpora video ID, let's set the thumbnail URL
			if(isset($matches[1])) {
				$mpora_thumbnail = getMporaThumbnail($matches[1]);
				$new_thumbnail = $mpora_thumbnail;
			}
		}

    So basically I can’t work out how to get the image that has no file name according to WordPress and upload it to the site to use.

    Thanks for any help,
