Can't add video embedded code to Video Post after Wordpress Update

I’ve logged into my site today to create a post sharing my latest video in a Video Post as I’ve always done.
However the new Editor apart from looking super weird, doesn’t show the Embedded Video Code field so I don’t know where to input the link…
I’m super confused and this Wordpress update feels quite annoying.

I’ll apreciate it if you can tell me how to workaround this.

Hello @sininvierno,

Thanks for writing in!

because of the changes in WordPress 5.0, the video post settings has been changed. You can find it at the bottom of the page below the post contents.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your reply.
That is similar enough to how it used to be, the problem is it’s not showing up on my end. As you can see, the post is set to video but all I get at the bottom of the page is the post settings, not the video post settings.

Hey @sininvierno,

Could you please update to the latest versions?
Our latest versions are:

  • X theme 6.4.6
  • Cornerstone 3.4.6

This latest release contains fixes for several issues so be sure to check out the changelog (http://theme.co/changelog/).

_After doing the updates, always remember to clear all caches (if you are using WP Rocket, WP SuperCache or W3 Total Cache) when updating so that the code from the latest release is always in use. This will help you to avoid any potential errors.-

Please let us know how it goes.

So I’ve just updated cornerstone and xthem is up to date too and I still can’t see the video post settings slide.
I do use a child theme… could this have anything to do?

Hey @sininvierno,

​Would you mind providing us the url of your site with login credentials so we can take a closer look?

To do this, you can create a secure note with the following info:

Thank you.

I’ve added the secure note.
Thanks in advance and let me know what you find.

Hello @sininvierno,

It seems that you are still using X 4.6.4. Please update it to X 6.4.6 and this issue should be resolved.
For more details how you can update your theme, please check this out: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/setup-updating-your-themes-and-plugins/62

Please let us know how it goes.

I’ve updated and now the video embedded code field shows again.
Is there any place where I can read about X new features, especially in relation to wordpress complete makeover?
thanks

Hi @sininvierno,

Unfortunately, there is no detailed information but you can check our changelogs for the fixes and added features after your current version.

https://theme.co/changelog/

And I recommend doing that in staging before doing it on live. So you could check and fix possible issues due to update and version’s gap. Please check this https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/slider-revolution-error-message/48874 about the staging.

Thanks!
