Mike, no, I did not try the beta. Bad wording and sentence construction on my part. I meant I looked around the posts and comments dealing with the 3.5.1 release and did not see this issue addressed as it was in #22944 but assumed it was rolled into another ticket for repair.

Sorry for the confusion.

Thanks, too, for the code tip. I will try it out and see what happens.

You’re asking the wrong person on stuff like that. Generally it is always a good thing to upgrade. Rarely does anything truly catastrophic happen because of it. The problem with not upgrading is that if they change, for example, the code on how videos are displayed (and this is just an off-the-wall example) sometime in the future but the software you are using to share it with is out of date, it may not read the video’s embedding code properly and you’ll have an even worse problem on your hands.

My money’s on doing the upgrade. Maybe wait a month or two and read some forums to see what sort of issues it is having. If not many, upgrade then.

Hope this helps.

We’re all waiting. Don’t feel like the lone ranger. My blog has several videos which I schedule sometimes a month in advance or more. Then the comments come rolling in that the video is missing. I think there are ways to embed videos so as not to have the problem and it works mostly with YouTube videos however it is not consistent and because I like to center mine that usually trips some code which strips it bare.

I think they are still beta testing 3.5.1 but when I snooped around it appeared that this issue is not addressed. However, I suspect it got rolled into another code problem.

We should know in a few days (I hope.)

Mike, don’t get me wrong. I understand.

However, even you should be able to admit that whereas I’ve asked about the status of this 7 days ago and could have been told what you just told me, it took me having to sound snippy and sarcastic before anyone actually did.

Again, not being a smart-ass but trying to maybe have those who understand how all this works to show a little empathy for those of us who are frustrated and don’t get it…..and at one time were just as illiterate on these matters as we were.

Thanks for the link. I will check it out.

What does a person need to do to get an answer to a question? beg? Get on one’s knees? Promise to make dinner for a week?

To ESMI or Mike: just saw that the ticket mentioned by you, Mike, is closed and the problem fixed?

What does that mean to people like me who still have the problem? Still have to wait for 3.5.1? And how long might that be?

I’ve de-activated it. Thanks! Guess I got ahead of myself thinking it was done when I saw the has-patch added. I should have known better and looked at the links.

Apparently the plugin is not working (or the fix isn’t, either.)

Hi Esmi,

I uploaded Hotfix to my plug-ins directory. Should that fix it based on what I saw at the link Mike Little left?

Anyone have any idea when this will be fixed or how I can get information on when it will be fixed?

Yep, worked fine for me until this. However, it is widespread as a friend of mine also tried loading a video and it crapped out.

Thanks for pointing out that it is now a known problem.

Mike!

Please tell me I can go back to you theme soon!!!

I thought I was going crazy there for a while.

Thanks!

Went back in on a post with a video embed that had missed its schedule and checked the code. It was still there. I did NOTHING to it as the time had passed and figured if I modified it in any way it would appear normally.

Two minutes later the post appeared, stripped of the code so somewhere between sitting in the queue and actually getting passed through to be posted the embed codes are getting stripped out. And this is on the TwentyTwelve theme.

If I were to try and re-load 3.5 (minus the content folder as stated above) do I need to be concerned with the fact that V3.5 has something like 14 files in the root directory but when I FTP in I find there are about 24 files in MY root directory? Further assume the only two folders I delete are the wp-includes and wp-admin folders from the current location and then upload the two new folders?

The extra files I have on the server in the WP directory are below and all of them have “last modified” dates of before December except the .htaccess file (10/7/2012):

Here they are:
.htaccess
error_log
favicon.ico
index.php.wpau.bak
wp-app.php
wp-atom.php
wp-commentsrss2.php
wp-config.sample.php
wp-feed.php
wp-pass.php
wp-rdf.php
wp-register.php
wp-rss.php
wp-rss2.php

Switched back to TwentyTwelve and it STILL does not display the videos.

Ideas?!?!?!

OK everyone: I changed the theme to a newer one and it still dumps my videos. It’s Atahualpa V 3.7.1 last updated 12-02-2012

Something is very wrong here as I should not have to run through a bunch of themes to find one that works given I do not like the Twenty Twelve theme.

Help, please?!?!?!
