Can this work with playtube
If playtube is for WordPress then sure.
Okay
I don’t see why not. They likely use custom fields for videos so just tell Video Blogster to fill those fields in.
Hi friends,
Congrats for the nice script.
I have a news website focusing on a specific niche. I want to auto import youtube videos and publish them in my website. However my website is not wordpress, it is on codeigniter framework. Can your script be used for non-wordpress websites? My website script already has youtube video import feature on the admin panel and I am able to manually import, publish and play videos on my website.
I would be happy if you could inform.
Thanks.
No. Sorry, it is a WordPress plugin.
Hi,
I am using the product, but the product always gets same videos which were already posted in the past. How can I stop crawling and finding the same videos? I want product to post new videos only (which is not posted yet).

Hello, in the Build Query tab, change the query behavior from ‘Strict’ to ‘Continuous’
Hi John,
Thanks for your reply. Actually, its part is already “Continuous” from long time ago but the blogstar is keep posting same videos. I dont know why.
I have 3 content feeds below.
1 hour nightcore music
nightcore gaming mix
Best Nightcore song
If I delete one of them, I cannot gather all videos in same genre. So, I need all 3 of them.
Is there any solutions for not to post same videos in this situation?

Duplicates are skipped by default. If you’ve already imported an entire result list (500 per search), YouTube will not return more. Feel free to PM me details if not sure.
Hello!
I bought the plugin, but I don’t understand this. I need all videos imported to be assigned to my wordpress post category which I called simply “Video”.
Can I made automatically all videos imported by the plugin in posts be assigned to wordpress post category ‘video’?
Another information: how does the plugin manage the video? does it past something like an iframe inside the post, or the video url?
Thanks!
p.s. some question for spotify: does the plugin copy / pastes the spotify iframe inside the wordpress automatically created post?
Feel free to PM for direct support so I can include screenshots.
1) In the Create the Posts tab, select “video” in the Set category select box under Post Taxonomies.
2) and 3) VBP will import the video/track embed code into the post, as you define it in The Post Template tab -> Post Body
Thanks a lot! I have a final question: I made a mistake, and I deleted imported videos (posts) from wordpress. I need to reimport videos, but now they all skipped. How can I do again the impost without videos being skipped? Is there an option to flag?
The system tells me “YouTube video ID [YE7xmbLFlsw] is on the blacklist. Skipping.”, this for all 32 videos which I have correctly previously imported with the same tool.
Feel free to PM for direct support so I can include screenshots.
1) Yes, in the Process the Results tab, select ‘Update’ for setting ‘If content previously imported?’
2) In the Main Settings you have selected ‘Automatically add permanently deleted content IDs to the blacklist?’
can inport video from tiktok?
not yet. they don’t have an API so I have to write something custom.
it is compatible with streamtube theme?
I don’t see why not. If it uses custom meta fields just tell Video Blogster to import to those fields. Many premium themes work that way.
2/ Do you have the possibility to use Wordai? I don’t see it in the main settings.
1. Hello, not all videos have captions, but the template tag should have been removed in that case. Will fix for next release.
2. wordai I haven’t used. it would have to be integrated.
9 months and the VideoCaptions are still not showing. I see you take care of your product.
YouTube removed public caption support many months ago. They have not returned. Sorry.
from the api it is available, other plugins are working fine with captions
It is not publically available, per the API you need OAuth.
it needs a free APi key, that’s what I use.
The YouTube docs clearly state OAuth 2.0 authorization to download captions but whatever. Try it yourself:
https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/captions/AUieDaabls5Sj_JBTPLxa9mButbWQUGoslSg8kZ_QABG&key=YOUR_KEYResponse is “Request is missing required authentication credential. Expected OAuth 2 access token, login cookie or other valid authentication credential. See https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/devconsole-project."
If your other plugins are “working fine” then use them.
Will keep using Youtubomatic, no problem.
Hi,
I just bought the plugin and tested the demo before.
After installing it, I noticed that there is no option to select authors when I want to import content when creating posts. (Tabs: Make Coneten Feed-> Create Posts -> Set Post Author).
Did I do something wrong here or is there a way to assign content to non admins as well?
I am looking forward to your feedback.
Best regards
TWR
I can think of 3 reasons why the author select box would be empty: 1) Only authors with the capability to edit posts will be shown. 2) Have you set Advanced -> Max Entries to 0? 3) You used an internal WAP filter to change the author query parameters or results. If none of those, send me a PM with site details and I can log in and take a look.
Hi,
I have some questions about your product.
1. Can I post automatically other’s YouTube videos(not mine) based on the keywords which I set?
2. Can I post automatically a YouTube thumbnail image to featured image on a wordpress post?
3. Can I post the video in the specific category on wordress?
ex.)
keyword1 videos > category1
keyword2 videos > category2
1. yes as long as they’re public
2. yes
3. yes, each keyword in it’s own feed means each imported video can be saved with whatever properties and taxonomies you wish.
Thanks for your reply.
1. Can I also post the YouTube video which is posted on the past automatically?
2. You said “Yes”. Can I specify the featured image size?
3. Can I insert YouTube title on H3 or other specific place on the contents using tag such as #title# or #description#?
Best
1. yes
2. yes.
3. yes
Feel free to try the demo by clicking Live Preview at the top.
Any chance to get deepL as translation service?
I’ll check it out soon as I can.
is it possible to combine a Youtube video with an RSS feed into the same post?
Not as it is, no. Is there a reason for this? Not sure I’m following.
I am looking for an autoblog posting a little bit like ytevolution. Some of them incorporate a youtube importer and an RSS scraper. But in order to have a good and a long no duplicate content it is interesting to have a mix of both in the same post (rewrited).
Hmm I don’t see an easy to way to merge imports automatically, but perhaps you could import to an existing post. For instance import a YouTube video into a new post, then import from an RSS feed to append to that post.
My site is showing that there is an update for this plugin to 4.7.8, however I do not show one in your changelog, nor in my account to download. I am currently using 4.7.4. What is the new version and why am I not able to download it?
4.7.8 is the latest beta and you have checked the setting to check for beta updates. official releases are uploaded to codecanyon. If you don’t want beta updates, turn the beta check setting off.
Hello, Kindly do you support Country trending video import ?
Yes the mostPopular chart is supported. mostPopular – Return the most popular videos for the specified content region and video category.
question before purchasing:
1. Is this Compatible with jnews video theme ( https://jnews.io/jnews-plus-video/)
2. Can it import tiktok videos?
1. Never heard of it. If it uses WordPress content it should be fine. 2. Maybe in the future.
Does this auto refresh the YouTube comments after a video has been imported and a post created on the host WP site?
Ignore me, I’m a dopey sod. JRTFM answered my question… soz sausage.
Hi. Would this plugin work with Bitchute, LBRY, Odysee or Brighteon? Thanks
Nope
Thanks for the update. Please update the changelog
Done! thanks for the reminder!
Thanks
Hi Admin,
Can we just ADD playlist ID or Link so that all the playlist videos can be synced from YouTube channel?
I don’t want to add videos in the player playlist one by one. I just want to add only playlist link. So whenever i upload a video on YouTube under that playlist it start appearing on my website.
And can we achieve a similar look as YouTube. Like left side video is playing and on right side videos list will come?
Thanks
Yes you can enter the playlist ID. Videos added to the YouTube playlist can be automatically imported by Video Blogster. The display of the embedded videos is up to your theme.
Thanks for your replay. I want to achieve this look or layout of youtube video playlist. is it possible using this plugin?
https://prnt.sc/1172x3yThe Theme i am using is Houzez.
I’m not familiar with Houzez or how they would display a YouTube playlist.
Hi Admin,
Following is the theme i am using
https://themeforest.net/item/houzez-real-estate-wordpress-theme/15752549And this is the layout i want to achieve on the video gallery page. Where i will add playlist ID in using your plugin and can achieve the following layout.
https://prnt.sc/1172x3yThanks
I am not familiar with Houzez. If they allow that display with a playlist ID then Video Blogster can import to whatever custom field they use.
I recently switched from another RSS feed plugin to Video Blogster Pro. However, the other plugin doesn’t have half the features of Video Blogster Pro. But, because this other RSS plugin has one feature I can’t live without, I will continue to use it. When you add support for Feedspot, which allows users to combine multiple RSS sources into one feed url- I will use Video Blogster Pro exclusively.
I tested a Feedspot combined RSS feed and it was fine. Perhaps you could PM me more details?
