Maybe you’ve heard about it, maybe not* (read below), but this new version has a ton of new cool features, and it has received a complete makeover!

* my Video Poster is a WordPress plugin that can automatically post videos from YouTube.

  • Use it to automatically post videos from your YouTube account to your WordPress blog. No need to first upload to YouTube and THEN to your blog.
  • You can also use it for powering a video-category on your site with videos related to your homepage.
  • You could even run a complete video-site dedicated to a specific niche, automatically adding content to your blog(s).

It has a lot of cool features, and it’s quite a little bit… Clever… icon wink my Video Poster 2 (For WordPress blogs)

The major new features

  • New funky interface!

Seriously, it’s really nice.

  • Quick Posting

Simply enter a youtube.com-URL into a text field, optionally choose a category, click a button and voila! A neatly made blog post with the title, video, description, tags, comments, custom fields, and it only takes seconds!

  • New RSS feeds supported – Keyword Based!

One of which enables you to automatically get content for any keyword/phrase you want!

If you are a Douglas Adams fan, you can get videos for “Douglas Adams”, or you could dedicate a site to different kind of funny pet videos. Use your imagination.

  • Post template

You can now completely control how the posts are designed. Use the supported macros for full flexibility. You can use basic HTML and CSS styling to control the look completely if you want, or you can copy-paste one of the samples included in the plugin.

  • RSS with Thumbnails

You can now optionally have small thumbnails in your RSS feeds from your videos. “my Video Poster” automatically inserts the video thumbnail into your blogs RSS feed next to only the videos mvp has made.

  • Instant edit or delete links

Seeing something you don’t like? Instantly click either the edit or delete buttons inside the plugin!

Oh yeah, there are hundreds of small fine-tuning and bug-fixes, but those are the major new features.

And in case you’re wondering what was already included in the my Video Poster v.1-series, here are the highlights:

  • Automatically post batches of videos as often as you want from an unlimited (practically) list of YouTube RSS Feeds.
  • All text is fully embedded into the content, perfect for SEO value!
  • COOL FEATURE: Create Comments – my Video Poster can read the comments for the video, and automatically create similar comments right on your WordPress blog!
  • COOL FEATURE: Create Tags suggested by Yahoo API.
    MVP uses a Yahoo! API to find relevant tags for each video post. No hassle, no fuss, all done for you automatically.
    (This is optional, of course.)
  • COOL FEATURE: Custom fields. To allow for extensive integration with most advanced WordPress Themes, my Video Poster has from the very first release allowed for custom fields to be created for each post with ether the thumbnail, the video or both.Why is this cool? Well, if your WordPress Theme supports showing thumbnails for your blog posts.  Usually you would have to manually enter a custom field with the url of the thumbnail. This is something that mvp can do automatically.
  • All of the expected features: You can choose the author of the posts, the post status (draft or published), the video height and width, and optionally the embedding of thumbnail and video in to the actual post. (Note: This feature has been overridden by the new post template feature introduced in v2.)
  • Of course it is also possible to choose individual categories for each RSS feed to post in.
