Video Post

[kemrich]

What do I do to have a video post.  Vimeo in particular.  I know how to add featured images to the posts but I still cant figure out making a video post.  On this page http://kerryemrich.com/uncategorized/my-video-test/ I figured out how to add a video but if I add a featured image it also shows up.

Is it possible to have a featured image on the blog listing page but none on the single post for video posts only.

Looks like you already have inserted the vimeo video. To hide the image, you can use the following hack for now.

Input the following in the Custom CSS tab of options panel –

body.postid-2066 .image-container.full {
display:none;
}

where 2066 happens to be the post id for the video post. You can view the source of the post to see the post id.

Actually I have made changes to the theme to take care of this automatically for portfolio posts (not blog posts though) and the update is expected in next week or so.

I found a plugin that sort of solves the problem but having the images not displayed on single post blog pages seem pretty integral for a blog.    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/video-thumbnails/.

I changed the code in the single post file to:

<?php
if(has_tag(‘video’)){

}else {
$thumbnail_args = mo_get_thumbnail_args_for_singular();
mo_thumbnail($thumbnail_args);
}
?>

 

So if I tag a post with the word ‘video’ then on the single post pages the featured image does not appear.  This works great with that plugin
