In my blog i post some videos sometimes. When they´re in the homepage, they work fine; once they get to the 2nd page or someone tries to acess them from "video category", they just don´t load. I´m using Daylimotion. what can be wrong here? I believe i´ll have to change something at " index.php" but what?
Hi, it might be that on your homepage, the posts are showing the entire posts while your 2nd page, categorys and archives show only excerpts. PHP tag for full posts is something like : <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?> PHP tag for excerpts is : <?php the_excerpt() ?> There might be a condition in your index template such as : <? if (is_home() && (!$paged || $paged == 1) || is_search() || is_single() || is_page()): ?> <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?> <? else: ?><?php the_excerpt() ?><? endif; ?> Try to look for something like it and change the arguments of the condition or replace the_excerpt for the_content . That should do the trick. Good luck! Sam
Thanks for your reply. I´ve tried to tweak the code with the lines you provide, but i had no sucess. Can you take a look at My index template, follows: Filed Under (<?php the_category(', ') ?>) by <?php the_author() ?> on <?php the_time('F-j-Y') ?> </div> <div class="item_text"> <?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?> </div> <div class="item_panel"> <div class="panel_links"> <table> <tr>
Hi, I've visited your blog and the videos seem to be loading just fine. Perhaps you already found a way to fix this? Anyhow, it's possible that the issue is not with your index file but with the videos themselves. Especially if you're loading many videos on the same page, this can slow things down a lot. Good luck!

No sam, unfortunattely i didn´t. Can you watch the "sidecar TT-2004" video? Cause i can´t. It retrieves me the following message: "Invalid content - we don´t have the necessary info to provide you with the requested content."
I see what you mean. The image of the video loads but the video doesn't play... I hadn't tried actually playing the video before, sorry. I'm also sorry to say I have no exact idea how to fix this. I've tried a few blogs with dailymotion videos on equivalent pages and they seem to load just fine. Puzzling. Perhaps you could try to embed vids from other video sites and see if it helps. Or you could try another WP theme to see how it goes. Let us know how it goes, Sam
Thanks sam79, i was thinking that it could be a theme issue myself. Some days ago, i even contacted the theme builders, but got no answer. Thanks for your interest.
You seem to be using a 'sponsored' theme. From my knowledge they don't usually provide a lot of support. The problem might however not be in the theme itself but it's worth a few minutes to simply try another one. There are tons of free themes out there, I'm sure you'll find an even better one to try out. And if you have a few bucks to spare for a custom theme, there are a bunch of people out there (including me) always willing to give a hand. Good luck, Sam
