Hey Ced, hope your vacation was restful and enjoyable!

I have a situation where I could really use this "assign a post cover" feature. Did it ever get implemented as I cannot see where to do it.

I'm displaying a video on the home page and YouTube, as is par for them, has given us three truly ugly options for post covers.

A good landing is one you can walk away from.
A great landing is one where you can reuse the aircraft!

Hi
it was great thanks :)
do you know that you can give a custom cover to your video on Youtube when you upload it ?

I note this for next week, I will let you know. I have also other addons to share so I could integrate it in the same update

I found an easy solution to have a video starting and reloading by itself AND a background image before it starts (while it is loading).

It is called "Simple Video Player" and you can see it in action in the home page of my website www.capitanoagnoletti.it , where the background image is just the first frame of the same video.

"Simple Video Player" is a MODULE that you should:
- first set (where is the video you want to show, if you want to see the controls in the front end, if you want autoplay and loop) (see attached picture 1)
- then you put inside a Pagebuilder CK module box (see attached picture 2)
