I have resolved the issue.

Initially, I created a test post and embedded a YouTube video, which resulted in the previously mentioned image appearing unexpectedly. After saving this, I created a second test post, embedded the same video, and this time, another unrelated graphic from a previously abandoned article appeared. I had not realized there were two different images associated with this issue.

Following that, I created a third test article, embedded the YouTube video once again, and upon saving, the correct YouTube thumbnail was successfully retrieved.

I posted several new articles yesterday with no sign of the problem. It appears whatever was queued up in the Feature Image area has cleared. The issue appears to be resolved.

I realize this thread is quite old, but I’ve encountered a similar issue in just the last couple of days in the Newspaper theme.

I use a lot of YouTube videos with content on my site. In the last 48 hours, whenever I add a YouTube video to the Featured Video module (in the right-hand column). Upon saving the article, instead of scraping the video URL I’ve added, I see the thumbnail of a video I incorrectly pasted by mistake 2 days ago. The URL is just from a video I was listening to while working on the site.

For reference, here’s the video I pasted by accident:

Now, every time I paste a new video in the Featured Video field, this incorrect thumbnail appears. As a temporary workaround, I’m using a third-party tool to retrieve the correct thumbnail manually. I have to go to Featured Image, remove the bad/cached video image, and then manually add the thumbnail I’ve extracted with the third-party tool.

For reference, here’s the tool I’ve been using:

Any assistance or suggestions to clear up this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

I was just going to ask the same question and glad to see it’s coming to the social share. In my case I’m looking for Bluesky, Mastadon and Threads. Thank you very much and Happy New Year to the TagDiv team!

The availability of a DIY workaround solution is a great option; however, it would be even more beneficial if TagDiv considered officially adding Mastodon and other newer social networks to their list. Updating the list to include these while phasing out outdated platforms in a future update would improve usability, especially for users who aren’t developers and prefer ready-to-use features.

Dear Anamaria,

Thank you very much for the tip regarding the plugin conflict. You were absolutely correct, and I am now able to modify the page. I greatly appreciate your assistance.

Best regards,

Hello Bettina.

Unfortunately, I’m not getting far enough to follow your instructions. I can’t install the section. Nothing happens when click the green ‘Import Section’ button.

As previously stated, when I give up and close the screen for the “Latest Videos Section – Town Talk” I very very briefly see a pop-under screen pop-under window that says Load Section with a Yes or No choice on it. However, that disappears as quickly as ‘Load Section’ screen when I close it. I’m never able to see it long enough to select “yes”.

Here’s a video demonstration. You’ll see what I’m speaking of at 23 and 35 seconds about the pop-under window. You will need to pause the video and look at those marks.

Thanks.

Maybe next time give everyone a heads-up instead of “opting us in” like they do on Facebook. Thank you for at least giving me the option to remove it.

Thank you for sharing that info Calin. Much appreciated.

Thank you so much!
