 * Missing the Video box for the posts. From the amount of posts on it it seems 
   to be everyones same issue for the past year.

 * yeah you can fix that by following this [post](http://www.trottyzone.com/replace-featured-image-with-video-fix/)
 * it tells you to just open up replace-featured-image-with-video/pt-page-featured-
   video.php
 * find this line
 *     ```
       function add_fv_box_fields() {
           add_meta_box( 'docs_list', __( 'Featured Video', 'related-video' ), 'admin_fv_box_html', 'page', 'side' );
       }
       ```
   
 * and replace with
 *     ```
       function add_fv_box_fields() {
           add_meta_box( 'docs_list', __( 'Featured Video', 'related-video' ), 'admin_fv_box_html', 'page', 'side' );
           add_meta_box( 'docs_list', __( 'Featured Video', 'related-video' ), 'admin_fv_box_html', 'post', 'side' );
       }
       ```
   
 * then find the single.php file and look for something like this
    the_post_thumbnail(‘
   main’)
 * and replace it with
 *     ```
       if(get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), "_related-video", true) != ''){
        echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), "_related-video", true);
       }else{
        the_post_thumbnail( 'main' );
       }
       ```

 * Perhaps providing your theme name and url can be of help.
