Hi Support,

I do I get the video image to be display on the front homepage “home-11” without having to screen capture video image?

In the Video Page, they are automatically generated, but it seems not be the case with the front homepage?

Hello
can you please add a screenshot what you want to achieve ?
If you want article as video type
open article manager>article>options>>JA Magz>>article type as >>Video .
after that the article will show as video type and also you can see the video icon on the article .

Hi Pankajsharma,

Thanks for your reply.

With regards to your answer, I know that part already, the video image does show up on the Video Page as expected. However what I am asking is not that part. It is when the user visit on the homepage (front-page) and “home-11” section shows I believe images of the video, but to add that I have to screen and create image manually.

I just want to know how to do it automatically, like what had you had mentioned just by article manager>article>options>>JA Magz>>article type as >>Video .

I added two screen prints of the samples shown. The one you are seeing with one video is from the original template video that I have not deleted.

Hello John
Thanks for the screenshot . The module on the position Home-11 is Articles category module , that will shows the article .
If article is video type it will show us the video icon on the image , and if its not it will not show the image .

Now you want that the video icon will comes on every article image . For this you need to change the article type to video type
>>>article manager>article>options>>JA Magz>>article type as >>Video .

If you want you can set the option to Video type as default option on the place of >>TEXT
Go to templates/JA MAgz/etc/form/com_content.article.xml
change the line
<field name="content_type" type="list" default="text"
to

<field name="content_type" type="list" default="video"

After the video type is set as default
>> http://prntscr.com/4f7z89

Hope it helps you
