Hi,
On the layout, it will display your featured images. When you open the video posts page, you will see your videos.
Best Regards,

I'm sorry our posts crossed. I will do what was suggested in your last post.
Will that display my actual video?
Thank again,
Barbara

Hi. I have figured out how to get triangle to appear with a featured image. But the video itself does not display. Am I correct in understanding that I have to upload an unrelated image to my video posts and that the actual video will not display in the thumbnail?
In my previous template the video itself showed in the thumbnail.
Thank you,
Barbara

Hi,
You need to create a video post format to make the video icon appears.
To create a video post format, please do following steps:
1/ Make sure you installed & activated plugin Vafpress Post Formats UI - If not, go to Appearance > Install Plugins > and install this plugin.
2/ After that, go to edit the post: http://todayschristianlife.com/video-review-the-left-behind-series/
on the edit this post, above the post title, click on video tab and fill your video url here. Check this image
The video will auto appears on your single post page, you don't need to insert the video on your wysing editor.
Best Regards,

Hi. Yes I can do that but it doesn't solve my problem. On the demo for Soledad Travel there is a player type triangle on the thumbnail so that you can tell it is a video (see screen shot attaced). That video player triangle does not appear on the videos on my site http://todayschristianlife.com/. Could you please tell me how this post can be set to display as a video as seen on the demo?
My video post is the second post down.
Thank you,
Barbara

Hi,
You should set an featured image for your posts because the featured images will use for all other spaces on your site. ( on Related Posts, widgets,.... )

Hi. My video posts do not display a video thumbnail. I don't want to add a still photo as a featured photo. I want a video thumbnail to appear for all video posts.
Please tell me how this can be set!
Thank you.
