Automatic Import:

In general, videos uploaded to Vimeo.com should be automatically imported into MBC’s WordPress Site

The status of the automated import mechanism can be verified by going to Videos->Automatic import in the Dashboard menu, or clicking this link: Automatic Import

 

This page will also show the total videos imported, as well as when the last import query run was made

 

A good “status” is “Import as custom post”, a bad status would be “Not in Queue”.

If the status is “not in queue”:

  1. Check the box next to the MBC Vimeo Channel import item
  2. Under the drop down above (which says “bulk actions”), select “add to import queue”
  3. and hit Apply

Verify that the import is functioning.

Vimeo Video - After Import

After Vimeo Videos are imported (Automatically or not), they will appear in the Videos (and Videos->All Videos) area of the dashboard.

At this point:

  1. Check the Vimeo video titles for spelling or formatting errors
  2. Properly categorize the videos
    1. If the video is a Non-Sermon video, it will be categorized using the taxonomy “Vimeo Video categories“
    2. If the video is a Sermon video, it must be categorized using the taxonomy “Sermon Video Categories“

For SERMON videos:

In the section of “Edit Video” page labeled: “Sermon Video Categories”

  1. Check the sermon series category this sermon belongs to, add category if missing
  2. Check the Speakers in this sermon, add category to speakers/guest speakers if missing

In the section of “Edit Video” page labeled: “Podcast Series”

  1. Check the podcast series this sermon belongs to
