Hello.
Here is my site: http://somelink.net
The problem is: video thumbnail doesn't appear on the home (main) page.
For example -the scoop called "Video test" doesn't show thumbnail on the main page. It shows nothing.
I don't know what the problem is.
Please help.Thanks

mercmobily commentedHi,
Something very funny is going on with your site.
In the source, I can see:
There is clearly a big problem there, because the link after "
" is not closed.
I can't figure out what's going on on your end, quite frankly. Something seems to be broken. One of the problems is that the story has no teaser, because the body is empty -- you shouldn't allow stories with empty bodies.
Anyhow, questions:
* Did you change any of the modules, and in particular drigg_embed.modile?
* DO you see any problems in your server's error log?
* Can you please do some more testing to figure things out on your end, starting by the fact that the HTML above shoudn't be that broken?
Thanks,
Merc.

d0t101101 commentedThe embed HTML code on your site looks truncated, odd... Another thing, I've had issues with youtube embeds if there are characters AFTER the video ID. Try this URL instead (once the other problems are resovled :) ):
http://www.youtube.com/v/k0QoeG8qlWU
This commonly happens when people tried to used my sites bookmarklet on a youtube page after browsing around... Resulted in the thumb not being displayed, but the video works fine. IMHO drigg's video validation should strip everything besides the preg_match'd code (in drupal_embed), maybe by looking for a '&' as a delimiter - unsure how to do this off the top of my head though :)

mercmobily commentedHi,
One thing needs to be clear: without reproducing instructions, I will have no choice but close this bug as a "won't fix".
It's not to be nasty. That's just how it is -- waiting for Crystal Balls to be actually available.
So:
* Please provide precise instructions on how to reproduce this problem
The instructions need to be so precise that *anybody* with NO experience in Drigg should be able to reproduce the problem.
Thanks,
Merc.

korzh commentedHello.
I found the problem. In settings "Content Management - Post Settings - Length of trimmed posts" was 200 characters.
I changed the "Length of trimmed posts" to 600 characters and it becomes ok.
But now it shows whole video, not thumbnail on a main page.
You can see here: http://somelink.net
Besides, yesterday I tried a fresh install of Drigg (manual way) on http://korzh.in.ua.
I followed instruction provided on drigg-code for manual install as usual. And all the latest versions of modules.
I have the same: Video on the main page not showing thumbnail. It shows the whole video.
Maybe instruction is missing something. Today I'll try setup drigg using express way of installation...we'll see)
Thanks
