## Description

Dynamic Video for Divi Posts dynamically embeds a video into your blog posts by 
using a custom field. When editing a post, a new meta box labeled “Video URL” appears.
Enter a video URL (e.g., a YouTube link) into this box, and then use the [dynamic_video]
shortcode in your Divi Builder template. The video is automatically embedded using
WordPress’s oEmbed functionality. New in version 1.0.2: Optional setting to display
the post’s featured image when no video URL is provided.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/dynamic-video-for-divi-posts`
    directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen by uploading
    the ZIP file.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Edit any post to see the “Video URL” meta box and enter your video URL.
 4. In your Divi Builder template, add a Code or Text module and insert the shortcode:`[
    dynamic_video]`.
 5. (Optional) Go to Settings > Dynamic Video for Divi Posts to enable the featured
    image fallback option.

## FAQ

### How do I embed a video?

Enter a valid video URL (for example, a YouTube URL) in the “Video URL” meta box
when editing a post, and then use the `[dynamic_video]` shortcode in your template.
The video will be automatically embedded via WordPress’s oEmbed functionality.

### Why isn’t my video appearing?

Ensure that the video URL is correct and that your post type supports the shortcode.
Also, verify that your Divi Builder template includes the `[dynamic_video]` shortcode.
If no video appears and the featured image option is enabled, check if the post 
has a featured image set.

### How does the featured image fallback work?

When enabled in the plugin settings, if no video URL is provided for a post, the
plugin will display the post’s featured image instead of leaving the space blank.
You can turn this feature on or off in the plugin settings.
