WordPress YouTube plugin code not working

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 17

I bought the WordPress YouTube Plugin after seeing a few people here recommend it and I followed the instructions and used the code recommended in the themes documentation (found here https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/youtube-video-importer-from-codecanyon/) but it doesn’t seem to work (at least for me anyway).

I added the code in its entirety into my functions.php file, saved it and reload my site and the sites front end and back end immediately become blank, as soon as I removed it I regained access to the site.

Is there any solutions to make the code work as I really need this plugin

thanks in advance!

Hi,

Please make sure you have added the code right in the functions.php file.
Add only this code for the parent theme, paste it from below, and try it again, make sure you add it like this:http://screencast.com/t/O1dMaenrpcFK

/**
 * Add theme compatibility
 * @param array $themes - array of default compatible themes
 */
function newspaper_theme_compat( $themes ){

    $themes['newspaper'] = array(
        'post_type' => 'post',
        'taxonomy' 	=> false,
        'post_meta' => array(
            'embed' => 'tie_embed_code'
        ),
        'post_format'	=> 'video',
        'theme_name' 	=> 'Newspaper'
    );

    return $themes;
}
add_filter('cbc_youtube_theme_support', 'newspaper_theme_compat');
/**
 * On bulk post import, set up all extra fields needed by the theme to flag post as video
 * @param int $post_id - ID of newly created post
 * @param array $video - array of video data returned by YouTube
 * @param false/array $theme_import - theme import configuration
 */
function newspaper_post_fields( $post_id, $video, $theme_import ){
    // check if setting is to import as theme post
    if( !$theme_import ){
        return;
    }

    $postarray["td_video"] ="http://youtu.be/".$video['video_id'];
    update_post_meta($post_id, 'td_post_video', $postarray );

}
add_action('cbc_post_insert', 'newspaper_post_fields', 10, 3);

Hope this works!
Thanks
