Hi
How to prevent Tubepress from fetching youtube user account with similar name? i.e

the account I want to fetch from is http://www.youtube.com/skinnotion

but there is also another youtube user with a similar name http://www.youtube.c...ser/SkinNotions

 

Currently Tubepress fetches the videos from both account even though the setting is "Video from this user = skinnotion". I have also try using 'This YouTube user's "favorites" = skinnotion', but the problem remains the same.

i.e http://www.skinnotion.com.au/video/

As you can see the first 2 videos is from user/skinnotions which is not correct.

Is this an error?

 

Thanks

Hello connectus,

 

You are seeing SkinNotions videos because you are using the shortcode [tubepress mode="tag"]

 

This is causing TubePress to search for the tag "SkinNotion".

 

If you just use the [TubePress] shortcode and set video from this user = skinnotion, it will only display your two videos and not the other two.

 

Let us know.

Thanks!
