Empty Vimeo cache

[Solved]

Foliovision › Forums › FV Player › Troubleshooting › Empty Vimeo cache

  • Robert 3 years, 9 months ago

    Hey Foliovision,

    I think this is a new issue that comes with the faster loading option you guys implemented recently (which is great) but I’m not 100% sure.

    The situation is as follows: I host through Vimeo and I changed the thumbnails of my videos about two week ago after first posting them on the site.

    It seems that Foliovision stubbornly remembers the link to the first thumbnail (which is still hosted somewhere on Vimeo) and keeps showing that old thumbnail instead of the new one I have enabled.

    I probably have to purge the foliovision Vimeo cache somewhere but I don’t know how. Help much appreciated.

    Robert

    Hello Robert,

    thank you for bringing this to our attention!

    I will forward your inquiry to our development team to investigate further.

    Thanks,
    Maria

    Hello Robert,

    the links to these splash screens are actually present in the FV Player database or in the [fvplayer] shortcode if you are using the old [fvplayer src="..." splash="..."] shortcodes.

    We were talking about adding a button to refresh all the Vimeo splash screens, so perhaps the time has come to add it. Please let us know if you use the FV Player database.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    My website uses the shortcode. I just fill in the vimeo ID and then the theme has this “do_shortcode” thing.

    But there is no splash link added to that shortcode. Just the link to the video.

    My previous comment seems to be stuck awaiting moderation.

    Hello Robert,

    please upgrade FV Player Pro to latest version and switch to beta (here’s how: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/switching-fv-player-pro-to-beta )

    Then you can click a button in wp-admin -> Settings -> FV Player Pro -> Hosting -> Vimeo -> Refresh splash screens and durations.

    It shouldn’t take long and you should see a message like:

    1234 cached shortcode Vimeo splash screens removed.

    And finally when you go to your videos you should see the up-to-date splash screens.

    I enjoyed your video review of the metronome app letting you add breaks in to metronome ticks to improve the timing.

    Thanks,
    Martin

    Ha Thanks Martin. And have fun grooving with that app :-)
