GREAT WORK AND NICE UPDATE!! Sorry for Caps, but… OMG!! NICE WORK!!
Thank you ToniMiranda!
Hi! Great plugin, just a quick question, how can I edit the videos and description? Right now when I click on the edit button in the videos section it brings me to a blank edit page which doesn’t have any options, eg, .../wp-admin/post.php?post=568&action=edit Thanks again T
lol nevermind, I found the answer to my question, settings are available. thanks
OK
will this plugin work with Videoly theme https://themeforest.net/item/videoly-video-wordpress-theme/19557971?s_rank=1 ?
Hello! Plugin is tested on 60 themes so i believe yes. But if you want you can send me your theme and i will do test for you.
Hey! I’m wondering how can I change the default active link (currently at videos menu item). I want to change it to Rules and prizes. I know some php if it is needed to change plugin files.
Thanks in advance!
Hello. No sorry the default page is the gallery
is it possible to have an option to upload the actual video to our server instead of putting the link from youtube of Vimeo?
No. It is problematic to do direct upload because you need a very powerful server. Example if you do photo contest all photos will have 2-10 Mb but videos can have 4gb so 500x-1000x more. So you need huge space on your server, enormous computing power for rendering videos, enormous memory and also massive bandwidth on your server connection. It is impossible for 99.99% of my clients have a server for that. So contest is created for services like Youtube it is better for everyone even for the contestants.
Thanks for the reply, how about customising the video page the same as the theme used, like fonts and colour of the menu, is there a settings where we can change this?
read the documentation on increasing the width manually but no luck.
Can we get a geolocation option under registration process, like what we need is contestant only for UK region and we want other contestant to redirect to a global page?
Hello. All that you can change is in contest settings and general settings. Other things you can change only through CSS file. There is not possible use geolocation right now. Sorry
Can the default number of videos displayed on the video and top 10 pages be changed? Thanks.
Yes. But only manually. Use support form and i will do that for you.(free of course) https://codecanyon.net/item/video-contest-wordpress-plugin/8619526/support
Ok. I sent the request. Thank you.
Will Instagram video links be Integrated sometime soon thanks for your Support
Hello. You are the only second one who asks me for such feature in three years. But i will check how problematic (or not) it can be.
Can I upload all videos on backend? I don’t want an option on frontend for users to upload
You can hide fronted upload
Hi there, any plans to integrate Facebook videos ?
Hello. Not now. You are first who ask me about facebook videos.
Great pluggin… two things: How do Centralized the plugging inside my page and make it site wide and I’m having trouble when I upload a video, this message comes in red: Revolution Slider Error: You have some jquery.js library include that comes after the revolution files js include. This includes make eliminates the revolution slider libraries, and make it not work.
To fix it you can: 1. In the Slider Settings -> Troubleshooting set option: Put JS Includes To Body option to true. 2. Find the double jquery.js include and remove it.
I will send a support ticket www.hersheypr.com
I fixe the revolution slide error but the fixing to the center and fit wide won’t work and it seems off the center. I was wondering if this could be centered and bigger? Also After I uploaded a sample video the page reloads and my plugging got lost.
Solved by email
The plugin will not allow me to upload videos, because when I click to add video in the menu not show the form and the screen is blank

Pre-sale questions: When exporting the data of the users, is saved along with their data to whom they voted?
Hello. No only personal user data
Thanks! Any way to know? One prize is for the one who vote for the favourite video!!!
I am sorry. I do know how to do it but it is work for 3-5 hours.
Updating to 2, or 2.1 from 1.2 breaks the contest. When trying to add a new contest from the font-end, the page only reloads and not contest gets added.
Is anyone else having this issue? I tested with the WP default theme or premium themes.
Hi. Did you do all steps in update procedure? Did you do deactivate and activate plugin again? (just deactivate NOT delete)
Hello Alfinator.
Thank you for this fabulous plugin
It worked at once. I have no problems with it. Only that I have no idea how to combine it with my membership plugin. If I don’t do it, I will be in the middle of a big mess.
Thinking about it I have two options – only members of the website will be able to attend the contest or people to pay a fee to attend the contest.
If you already explained this situation, please excuse me, but I didn’t see it yet.
Regards
Alfinator, how to disable the register function of your plugin?
Hello! Sorry, i do not know how membership plugin works. All users are 100% integrated to WordPress. So what I know 3rd party plugins does not have a problem with that. Register function can not be disabled. BUT if you want I can do some small changes for you, that upload section will be visible to registered users only. If you want to use standard support form and send me a message. I will need an only temporary admin account for that. https://codecanyon.net/item/photo-contest-wordpress-plugin/8320636/support
Presale question: does it work well with themeforest/envato themes VideoTouch and OneVideo?
Sorry, i do not know. I do test on 60 themes but none one of them is VideoTouch or OneVideo. Do not worry if you will have a trouble I am here for you and we can handle this.

Hello this file is not inside my plugin – not even one of the folders is not in my plugin name/public_html/application/vendor/phpunit/phpunit/src/Util/PHP/eval-stdin.php
They are saying that someone accessed the server through the script and uploaded these files??? Ill try to find out more and send it your way.
Listen. I am actually very proud on my security. Not only that every file is secured against use from outside but also is every form is secured by WordPress internal functions and only admin can execute functions from the backend. This is why was never security problem with my plugins. Not even one. Plus there is secure check from Envato personal. Every new version must go through a review. I understand that you have worries and it is OK because the security is most important if you are online. I believe that your host found something dangerous. But my plugins are hosted on Hostgator normally a lot of my customers when need help ask me for help direct on their installation. If is there the problem I will know that. Security is important so all users and all comments are also 100% integrated to WordPress no single data about users or comments or contest are stored or is access to them from my plugin.
Great. And I actually LOVE your plugin so I am trying to find out what happened. If I learn anything I will send it your way as extra information. But again, I LOVE your plugin, not complaining at all. Just being informative and helpful if I can be.
Listen which version actually you have? Because every new version has a new security check and some improvements so it is clear that version 2.1 have more security features than version 1.1. Like I said the security first in my case not only the access but also security in voting is important. So if you have a version older than 2.1 do the update. How to do it you will find in documentation
Any help is much appreciated.
Great plugin, however, is it possible to make only one vote possible among all the video by ip user : if someone vote for a video, and then he votes for another video, the first video will be unvoted. Is it possible ?
Thank you. No sorry. This is not possible.
Hey man, how do i center the video’s in Video Contest plugin? This is my website: http://oi65.tinypic.com/fm04ex.jpg
Please use support form and send me URL of your site
what a support.
You did some code change and I must see what exactly you did. And Is better send me URL private way by email.
thanks for the new update to allow for a secondary page for the video contests. I had to change the post type to fbtab for the secondary page because of the facebook page tab plugin I use but I can now run the same video contest on both my web site and facebook page
