Video Elements v1.2 WordPress Theme

Video Elements v1.2 WordPress Theme 

Elementos de Video para Wordpress 

Previously titled the “WPE Video Gallery Theme“, “Video Elements” is
now ready for purchase. This theme has been on my back for at least 2
months now, and I finally just had to sit down and finish it. You will
notice that a few things have changed from the concept design to the
final product, but I think you will be happy with the end result.

 

 

A Video Gallery Style WordPress Theme

Video Elements was designed with the video blogger in mind featuring
traditional and gallery style layout options, a fully wigitized and
customizable sidebar, “Instant View” for viewing videos on the fly and
much more.

Just like my VideoFlick theme, Video Elements comes with a fully
integrated and customized version of “mediabox” developed by Iaian7.
Click a thumbnail and the video of your choice is launched in a full
screen “ajax” window. Currently, this feature supports several video
formats including Flickr Video, MySpace Video, Revver, Veoh, Viddler
and Vimeo, YouTube, Google Video, MetaCafe, DailyMotion, FLV (Flash)
Video, Quicktime and Windows Media Video.

It’s All About The Video

Video Elements allows you to embed your videos in two different
ways, including the “Instant View” which allows users to instantly view
any video on your site by selecting the video thumbnail, and within the
single post page where the video is featured right above your post
description.

I have included optional theme files that allows you to eliminate
the “Instant View” feature entirely. If you choose to disable “Instant
View”, post thumbnails will link directly to your single video post
pages.

Featured Videos in Two Places

The Video Elements theme allows you to feature your best videos in 2
different places including at the top of the page within the coverflow,
as well as within the featured video list on the sidebar. The top
coverflow list can be controlled directly through the theme options
page. Just add your thumbnail, description and link, and the theme
takes care of the rest. For the sideblog list, simply create a category
called “Featured”. Any post that is part of the “Featured” category
will be displayed within the sideblog video list.

Two Different Layout Styles

GalleryVideo Elements includes two ways of displaying videos
including the traditional linear layout as well as an optional gallery
layout. You can choose one or the other, or even both together. I have
created a live demo so that you can see exactly what the theme can do.

UPDATE:

For those that purchased the Video Elements theme before April 11th,
I have released an update that fixes two bugs found in the initial
release including the “clearing of coverflow settings” as well as the
“pagination issue” found within the gallery.php page template. I have
sent all of you re-download links via e-junkie, or you can download the
patched files here.

DESIGN NOTES:

The first thing you might notice is that I eliminated the 3 column
footer shown in the original theme concept. The reason behind this is
that there was just too much information on one screen which made the
theme much too cluttered. Also, I played with several “coverflow”
options for the featured video bar at the top, but there were so many
issues (browser compatibility, integration problems, etc.) with most of
them that I stuck with my original implementation.
