Use with VIsual Composer and SnapTube theme?

    The setup format I am using for a new site is the following:

    The theme is SnapTube [https://cohhe.com/demo/snaptube/] which natively uses WordPress Video Gallery [https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/contus-video-gallery/] to load YouTube videos individually into its own custom post type, and then use a widget for Visual Composer from WPBakery, to dislay them.

    Most video auto-fetch plugins seem to import video content into the WordPress database directly. However, it looks like Contus uses its own custom database.

    The VisualComposer widget can ‘see’ the WordPress Video Gallery database, where other video downloaders I have tried can see the custom post type but the video downloaders I have tried so far cannot post to the database.

    I would like to cut out WordPress Video Gallery altogether and simply have Visual Composer widget display the videos from your WordPress downloads.

    Do you think that would be possible?

    Gut feeling (as I don’t know the theme, plugin or VC widget); possible, but it might require substantial development on your part.

    The “WP YouTube Lyte”-part of the equation is simple; in your code (or the VC widget) that renders the custom post type you’ll call lyte_preparse($ytID) to replace the video id with a lyte player.

    But the interaction between the theme and the Contus-table in the DB, that will be the hard(er) part …

    Good luck! ??
