It is importing videos from the links, but not showing thumbnails for most and not even playing the video in the newsfeed except youtube. Even the Video section is only showing youtube video which I uploaded on newsfeed and not other.

admin -> settings -> user settings -> content input tab 


scroll down 


Allowed resources list


put the other domain names in there as well as your own,  you will need your own domain in there if anyone shares a FB vid.    But all the sites that you expect to get video feeds from should be in that box. 


Hope that helps

I already did it, but still the same problem

dave Apr 25 '15
did you try a new video embed after you changed it, it might not read the old ones.

Umair Apr 25 '15

Umair, have you managed to fix the issue?
If no, first of all please check the plugin version and version of Oxwall software you are using. You can find the current  plugin version in /ow_plugins/pluginname/plugin.xml file.

If yes, it would be useful for other oxwallers to share the solution.
Thanks in advance.

Its Umair

what is gd library? how to check?
dave Leader
dave Apr 27 '15
GD library is in  your phpinfo, check to see if its listed, its for images.  Google GD library for centos if your on centos and there are lots of tutorials.

do you have issues with any other images in the site, any at all or just vid thumbs?
Umair
Umair Apr 27 '15
no issues yet. Only vid thumbs. And when someone clicks on a link, instead of playing in the newsfeed, it takes to the video page.

Umair, please deactivate all third-party plugins. It will help us to find out the reasons of the newsfeed issue.  Did you make any custom code modification?
To see the actual errors you need to enable debug mode. You can do it using this instruction: http://docs.oxwall.org/plugin-tuts:enable-debug .  If there are any errors, post the error message here.

The thumbnail issue is before I installed third party plugins. Anyway i will enable debug mode.

Umair Apr 28 '15
