    Hello, I've created a new post with a video embed and when the post appears on the home page there is no video image next to it, just text. How is that fixed?

    Hi,

    The video format appears on the layout only apply for Standard & Classic layouts.

    With other layouts, it doesn't appears - it just appears when you open the post detail.

    And, you should set a featured image for all your posts - with video format, you will see a video icon on the featured images.


    Best Regards,

    How do you get a featured image with a video icon? What do you mean by video format? Is that a plugin?

    Hi,

    It's a post format. Seem you didn't know about post format from Wordpress.

    To create a post format, please do following steps:

    1/ Make sure you installed plugin Vafpress Post Formats UI - If not go to Appearance > Install Plugins > and install this plugin.

    2/ Go to edit a post, you can see list tab above the posts title - check this image

    Click to video tab and fill the necessary information

    Best Regards,

    Yes I do have that thank you. I downloaded the Video Thumbnails plugin also which seems to work great with automatically setting a featured image.
