Hello,
I am using the lates versions of FV Player and FV Pro. Everytime I try to edit an existing player on the player list I get the following message:
The requested player could not be found.Any ideas how to fix this issue?
Thanks
Nick

Hello Nick,
I’m sorry to hear about your trouble, do it work when you load the editor on the post editing screen directly? You can place your cursor into the [fvplayer id="12341"] kind of shortcode and then hit the FV Player button on top of the editor. Of if you are using WordPress 5 with Gutenberg (block editor) you can just hit that button.
Can you open your browser JavaScript console (here’s how: https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Your_Browser_to_Diagnose_JavaScript_Errors#Step_3:_Diagnosis ) and then repeat your action and see if you get some error?
Can you install the Error Log Viewer plugin and see if any new errors show up in it every time you try to edit a player?
Thanks,
Martin
Hello Martin,
I can create a new playlist but I cannot edit the existing ones, neither on the post editing screen or on the FV Player playlist overview.
I get the error message form Java Script console:
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 ()
I must also say that the video files are not stored on the local server but on a cloud server. I did not have this issue though before updating to WordPress 5. It seems that the new WordPress version causes a lot of issues with several plugins.
Thanks
Nick
Hello Nikolaos,
so far I didn’t experience such issues when using WordPress 5.0.
That 404 issue doesn’t seem like it, however what resource URL does it occur for?
We are happy to fix the editing issue for you directly on your website, just order the Pro support here: https://foliovision.com/pro-support
Or we can also continue helping you with the troubleshooting. Does the issue go away if you deactivate all the other plugins?
Thanks,
Martin
Hello Martin,
It occurs to the following resource URL:
https://….com/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php 404
I deactivated all plugins but the issue remains.
Thanks
Nick
Hello Nikolaos,
it’s a strange issue. That URL is the standard endpoint for the WP Ajax. So it has to exist. I tried to open that URL and it it gives back HTTP 400 (Bad request) properly. So I wonder why does it return HTTP 404 (Not found) when using FV Player.
Please go to your site wp-admin do a right mouse click in it and select “View source code”. You will see the page HTML code. Can you search there for admin-ajax.php and let us know what you find? These should be full URL somewhere which might be different than standard /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
This could be caused by some security hardening.
Thanks,
Martin
