Earlier today we released an important update for the Video theme. For the first time you’ll be able to set up a front-end video submission form which members can use to add videos to your site. To access this page after installing the update simply click on the new “Add Video” button in the top right corner of the site. Multiple Submission Options The video submission form will allow your members to add videos in three different ways By pasting the video URL By providing the video embed code By uploading the actual video file Apart from that they’ll also be able to add the video title, description, excerpt and thumbnail. With that said we didn’t forget about you, the admin. Visit the newly added Appearance ⇨ Theme Settings section to decide what happens with submitted video posts. Should they be published immediately or held for moderation? Font-end Register Form and User Dashboard Visitors will now be able to sign up either through a dedicated front-end register form or while submitting their video (inside the Submit Video form). The user dashboard will allow your members to edit or delete the videos they previously submitted. They’ll be able to access it by clicking on their username next to the “Add Video” button in the top right corner of the site. Apart from managing the videos, members will also be able to update their website profile. The “Edit Profile” page will allow them to enter their website URL and a short bio. Allow Visitors to Download Uploaded Videos While submitting a video post which contains an actual video file (not an YouTube embed) both you and your members will be able to mark the video as “downloadable”. Doing this will enable a small “Download” next to the video on your site which will allow any visitor to download the video source file. Available Right Now Inside Member Area The Video theme updates is available right for free to all Video owners and Club members with an active license. Download it immediately from the member area. To read more about the changes implemented in the new version (v1.1) open the change log. The video submission form has been by far the most requested feature for this theme. I hope you guys like the way it was implemented. View Live Demo, ask us a question or Purchase Video
