About MyThemeShop Video WordPress Theme 2.2.8

MyThemeShop Video is a premium WordPress theme from MyThemeShop, made for sites where video is the main content: a video blog, a channel's site or a magazine that leans on embedded clips. In the store it is filed under premium themes and blog and news-magazine themes.

The product listing gives little detail beyond that, and the old text carries a note that no updates are provided for it. The version on file dates from August 2017, which is old: WordPress, PHP and browsers have moved on a long way. Treat it as a theme you test carefully on a staging site, and don't assume it follows current WordPress features such as the block editor.

If you want a video theme with current support, look at the alternatives. If you already run this theme and want to keep it, this file is the version to use.

Key features

Built for video content: Designed around sites that publish and embed video.
Blog and magazine layout: Filed under blog and news-magazine themes, so it presents posts in a magazine style.
Premium theme package: A MyThemeShop premium theme with the usual install steps.
Standard WordPress theme: Installs from Appearance, Themes like any other theme.
Made by MyThemeShop: Comes from a developer known for lightweight, speed-focused themes.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

Sites that already run this theme and want to reinstall or move it
Small video blogs on a classic WordPress setup
Developers who can test and adapt an older theme

Look elsewhere if

New projects that need a theme with current support and updates
Sites built mainly with the block editor and full-site editing, which this 2017 theme predates

How to install MyThemeShop Video WordPress Theme 2.2.8

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Find the installable theme zip
Theme packages often bundle the theme, a child theme, plugins and docs. The installable theme is the zip that has style.css at its top level.
3
Upload it to WordPress
Go to Appearance → Themes → Add New Theme → Upload Theme, choose the theme zip, then Install Now and Activate.
4
Install the recommended plugins
Most premium themes show a notice listing their required plugins. Install those before importing any demo content.

Notes for this product

This is an older theme. Install it on a staging copy first, and check for any companion plugin the package asks you to install.

Getting started: using MyThemeShop Video WordPress Theme 2.2.8

Install and activate the theme. Upload the theme zip from Appearance, Themes, and activate it on a staging copy first.
Install any required plugins. Use the theme's notice, if it shows one, to install what it needs.
Set the theme options. Open the theme's options page and set your logo, colours and layout.
Publish posts with video. Add a post with a video embed, and check how the theme displays it.
Test on phones. Check that videos play and layouts fit on a real phone.

Common problems and fixes

Warnings or layout problems on a current PHP version

Why it happens: The theme dates from 2017, and older theme code can clash with newer PHP versions.
How to fix it: Test on a staging copy, keep error display off on the live site, and move to a newer video theme if problems persist.

Videos don't resize or appear cut off

Why it happens: The embed code has a fixed size, or the theme's responsive video styles don't apply to it.
How to fix it: Paste the video's plain link on its own line so WordPress embeds it responsively, instead of using a fixed-size embed code.

“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

Why it happens: The full download package was uploaded instead of the theme zip inside it.
How to fix it: Unzip the package and upload the zip that contains style.css at its top level.

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/themes with your host's file manager or SFTP.

Demo import stops part-way or times out

Why it happens: The server hits its execution-time or memory limit during the import.
How to fix it: Raise max_execution_time and memory_limit with your host, then re-run the importer; importing content, widgets and settings separately also helps.

Pages look broken right after activating

Why it happens: The theme's required plugins (page builder, theme core plugin) aren't installed yet.
How to fix it: Install and activate everything in the theme's required-plugins notice, then reload.
