Video background on the front page

[sohappyme1]

Hi guys, i have just downloaded one cool plug in to get video playing in the background, but it does not seem to be working on the theme front page. the plug in allows me to choose header or body options but I take that sweet date is made up of sections? Any ideas how could i getit working. Plug in allows short code tobe placed too, but this does not get it working either….

Thanks alot in advance

Hi Laura, thanks for your reply – i have added video on my main page by creating a post and then adding a shortcode to the front page content. Changed size, got it centered so it looks fab and no need for extra effort. I found it quicker and easier. Thanks so much anyway 🙂 You guys are great 🙂

Anyone wanting just video on your main/any page:
1.create new post
2.choose as video content on the right hand sidebar
3.add a link of the video (it will create a shortcode automatically)
4.Copy shortcode
5.Paste it to the wanted location of the page
6.Originally it will appear slightly more to the left so if you want it centered just add <center> [your shortcode] </center>
7.If you want the height and the width changed then add height=”480″ (or any) and width=”800″ (or any) you can place this anywhere within the shortcode so long as it wont break any links and it doesn’t have to be separated by comas or so.
8.if you want your video to play as soon as the page gets opened than in the exact same way add autoplay=”true”
9.If you want for the video to play over and over again by itself then add loop=”true”
10. if you want to make sure that your video will play on all browsers you will need an mp4 fromat video to be uploaded and webm format. Click on the visual button in the right corner where you edit pages, then click on the video and you will imedialy see two icons:1 allows you to edit. Press on it and upload your webm format of the video
11. great thing is to add a poster for your video link, meaning that if the browser (safari, chrome, firefox… etc) can’t or mobile version can not load your video it will show the picture that you will upload instead of a blank video window….
all in all, it should look something like this
<center>
[video src="link to .mp4 video" autoplay="true" loop="true" height="480" width="800" poster="link to you picture gif,png,.jpg" webm="link to your .webm viddeo"][/video]

</center>
p.s if you want to get your video converted to webm you can use vlc player and use its function ‘convert’ or use any of the online conversions
Best luck

Laura, I am not sure if anyone has encoutered this, but posts carousel is not mobile view friendly. It would let you see one of the posts but not more. And it wouldn’t show navigation arrows either. Would you mind advising how to get arrows floating to the left, since on mobile version it would only allow see the very first post, so i think if arrows were to change a location it should show on a screen
Thanks:)

Hello, will assign the ticket to a higher support level who can help and advise you in your query.

Hi, nope – i have not. Am, Radu – before you enter my web I must warn you that it is very, very naughty 😀 so don’t be shocked, remember that they are only pictures, vid and creative writting 😀 God, so embarrasing:D Also, if you wouldn’t mind, could you please add my recaptcha before the Forgot you password link in log in and in registartion form in general – please, please 🙂
It is still in process of building, so a bit messy – ignore that too:)
try adding server.how-daddy-likes-it.com directly into link window since no SEO is enabled before i finished, might not find otherwise. I will make it public for today so you could have a look. I have disabled all possible unnecessary plug ins.
Also would you be kind and advise how do i remove completely ‘Forum’ tab from profiles page, I don’t need it at all…
My wp log in : naughtykitty – F5f5ty1yvp1*+*
My cpanel log in serve258 – 4qiXp9a98Y
Thanks so, so much
Kindest regards

[Radu]

I’m not shocked,those are decent :))

Hi, i think the video file has resolution to small only 980px width and the screens are larger that 980 that cannot be fullwidth.

I’ve installed a captcha plugin but add here requested details : http://server.how-daddy-likes-it.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=wp-recaptcha-bp%2Frecaptcha.php

For forums tabs, try to de-activate the bbpress plugin

Hi guys, sorry for late reply – had loads of issues with the website dns servers. Anyway – I am happy you are not shocked 🙂 Worked well all of the suggestions. Also, thanks for the captcha in login 🙂 Trully much appreciated 🙂
One thing though recaptcha appears very much to the left of the primary profile form which will make customers to forget tick the captcha box. Would you maybe know how to get it somwhere nex to the “complete sign up” button or avove it please? Sorry to be a pain…
Here is the screenshot

Thank you
Kind regards

Radu, please don’t hate me – but there is one more problem. If i try to create an account via little Sign up button wchich is next to login, it comes up with captcha error. Which is weird cause captcha box isn’t even there at all. Please see pics attached. It works completely fine if i create new account via Join us button or via blue Create an account window, If i was to get rid of this button then i would loose a possibility forcustomers to recover passwords… 🙁
I am almost there, just these little yet important things….
And again, thank you 🙂

[Radu]

Hi,

Sure, please replace this file : wp-content/themes/sweetdate/page-parts/general-register-modal.php with the attached file after you unzip it !

Then add this CSS to your theme options -> styling options -> quick css

COPY CODE

.g-recaptcha { clear: both; width: 100%; margin: 10px 0; }

Hi guys, me again :O
with more problems….
So trully sorry to be a pain 🙁
Thanks so much for your help previously…
I have a wise-chat pro plugin installed and I can not upload images in the chat window, I have sent an e-mail to the developer and he is saying that it’s not his plugin causing the problem.
The debug info is as follows:

[5/9/2016 20:6:51] [wisechat.engines.AjaxEngine] [onMessageSentError] [responseText] <br /> <b>Notice</b>: getimagesize(): Read error! in <b>/home/serve258/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wise-chat-pro/src/services/WiseChatImagesService.php</b> on line <b>238</b><br /> {“error”:”Unsupported type of file.”}

Error message along with the entire code in wp-content/plugins/wise-chat-pro/src/services/WiseChatImagesService.php is as follows:
private function getTempFileImageInfo($safeResize) {
$fileInfo = file_exists($this->tempFileName) ? getimagesize($this->tempFileName) : null;

);
}

}

I so badly need you … please, help:(
Seems like I get one issue sorted and then another comes up as if I will never get that thing working… 🙁

Also, I am not sure if this is just a coincidence but I am getting these two lines in debug as an error with wp-recaptche-bp and weirdly, there is one more person on the plugin support forum who uses KLEO theme and has the same issue??
Notice: Undefined index: rcommentid in /home/web/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-ReCaptcha-bp/recaptcha.php on line 377

Notice: Undefined index: rchash in /home/web/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-recaptcha-bp/recaptcha.php on line 378

And the final issue that I have is:
in the very beginning my hosting providers have messed up and assigned me with the wrong URL/domain which was server.how-daddy-likes-it.com instead of a plain how-daddy-likes-it.com and browsers would only find if typed as server.how-daddy-likes-it.com so they changed it and such but I if try to go through any button that says ‘Register’ it would keep redirecting to https://server.how-daddy-likes-it.com (which is not valid). All other function buttons such as: join us, log in – would point to the correct URL https://how-daddy-likes-it.com, I have checked all URLs on wp they all are set as https://how-daddy-likes-it.com – correct ones. No knows how to help me and I am just so lost and so badly in need of help…
My credentials if needed:
My wp log in : naughtykitty – F5f5ty1yvp1*+*
My cpanel log in serve258 – Ybaxmjwwh1?*

I know it is a lot… but if you could help me I would be so thankful that I do not have words to describe it anymore…
Like I could literally hug you all… :s

[sohappyme1]

Oh, I forgot to mention that I have tried to filter the return register link by placing this code in functions.php but it just did not work 🙁

add_filter( ‘register_url’, ‘wp_346468’);

function wp_346468(){
return ‘https://how-daddy-likes-it.com/register/’;
}

Oh, my God – I feel like you want to yell at me after such essay, please don’t: I am only very new and this is my second shot with your themes being half way through and I just don’t want to give up on this one being so close…. 🙁

[Radu]

Hi again…

From what i figure it seems that the error that wise chat shows it’s related to a type of file that it’s not allowed to be uploaded, the plugin author says that it’s not a plugin problem ?

Do you have mentioned that you are trying to upload a gif or png file ? if you upload a jpg file it should work… see the next screenshot with the default allowed extensions for the files, if you are trying to upload other file extensions add them there.

About what register button are you talking about ? screenshot pleasem when i visit your website it shows 404 page in home.. screenshot please

Cheers

Hi Radu,
Thanks so much for replying. Please find pictures attached. It is so weird like, it would allow me to attach files but not upload pictures directly. I have had added file extensions in the field shown in your screenshot it would still come up with the error:
[7/9/2016 17:44:51] [wisechat.engines.AjaxEngine] [onMessageSentError] [responseText] <b>Notice</b>: getimagesize(): Read error! in <b>/home/serve258/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wise-chat-pro/src/services/WiseChatImagesService.php</b> on line <b>238</b> {“error”:”Unsupported type of file.”}

[7/9/2016 17:44:51] [wisechat.engines.AjaxEngine] [onMessageSentError] [exception] SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data
regarding the highlighted one, I have spent hours trying to figure this out and what I found is that perhaps the request set to returnType:’JSON’ so plugin expects JSON data in the response, but not receiving it….?
here is the link: I will leave it on debug so you may have a look if you will feel like it https://how-daddy-likes-it.com/full-width/live-play-window/ log in with naughtykitty – F5f5ty1yvp1*+*
In regards to registration button I have got it sorted, so 1 issue less 🙂 🙂
In regards to WP=reCaptcha-bp error shown in pic 4 – I will get rid of that plug in just to save time. I have codes from google captcha, just please coul dyou tell me where do I place them so I could have captcha in the same place as you have helped me with, see pic 8 and 9, please. It’s crazy how many errors this plugig causes
Codes for captcha directly from google page are as follows:
”Paste this snippet before the closing </head> tag on your HTML template:

<script src=’https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js’></script&gt;
Paste this snippet at the end of the <form> where you want the reCAPTCHA widget to appear:

”

Radu, I am really trying to do as much as I can on my own and trying not put any troubles on anyone’s shoulders it’s only things that I am not able to manage by myself yet…
Please don’t hate me

A million thanks

[Radu]

Hi,

Take a look at this screenshot please :

It seems that the chat problem it’s caused by the plugin itself I’ve de-activated the sweetdate theme and I’ve activated a default wp theme and same error occurs.

If you have debugg on from wp config set to be false to de-activate it then check if the recpatcha notice disappears
