Video Post Type with Icon stack (mis)behavior?

[gmcniel]

This post: https://blog.powur.com/training/powur-3-1-compensation-plan/

Is set to post type: video. However, when I add a video block it shows up twice on the post. Moreover, the first instance (which should automatically grab the video from the post content) isn’t working.

Video Explanation:

Update: Other stacks properly format embedded videos in a Standard post type:

So, I’ll need the CSS to make Icon stack behave properly for when we have mixed content posts using the Standard Post Type.

Hi There,

If you choose the post format video, you have to add the Embedded Video Code as well to make the video appears in the blog page and the top of post.

If you would like to hide the featured video(to prevent the duplicate video, because you already added the video block in the post content) in the single post page, please add this custom CSS under Theme Options > CSS:

.single.single-format-video .entry-featured {
    display: none;
}

Regards!

That Embedded Video Code doesn’t show up in the Post Settings panel:

To be clear, I want to use the featured player. I don’t want the embedded video unless I have a post with multiple videos.

As you can see in the above screencast video, I have the Video Post Settings panel enabled in options, but it’s not showing up. Maybe it’s a bug with Icon stack or something?

Also, please provide whatever CSS code is required to make the embedded videos use 16:9 aspect ratio.

You can get the embed code from youtube

Hope this helps

Thanks for being so thorough and thank the dev team for me who patched this bug. The Video Post Settings pane shows up as it should now. Placing the embed code in there worked just fine:
