* Plugin does not display pictures or videos. If someone reads the feed, sees a
message, he will not understand it. Simply because the picture is not there.
Ultimately renders the plugin useless.

* Hey [@rageragerage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rageragerage/),
* Thanks for the feedback, and sorry to hear that you didn’t find the plugin useful.
Would it help if I added some text or an icon which lets the user know that the
post contains a picture or video and links them to view it on Facebook? If you
think this would be useful then let me know and I can send you a code snippet
to add to the plugin settings to achieve this, and can also add it into the next
update.
* If you have any other feedback at all then please let us know as we are always
looking for ways to improve the plugin, and just let me know if you’d like me
to send you the snippet.
* Many thanks!
* John

* It would certainly add some functionality. In case there is no link, but a picture/
video/.. provided, I think you should add a link to that picture or video.
* By the way this plugin conflicts (I think) with a certain Youtube Background
Player:
* [https://github.com/pupunzi/jquery.mb.YTPlayer/wiki](https://github.com/pupunzi/jquery.mb.YTPlayer/wiki)
* The iframe from YTplayer isn’t put in the html with Custom Facebook Feed activated,
when deactivated it works for me again. Even though the video is only on a specific
site, where no Facebook Feed is. Probably a user error, idk same happens with
Feed Them Social WP plugin.

* Hey [@rageragerage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rageragerage/),
* For sure, I’ve put together a snippet for you which will do this. It will add
either a photo or video icon along with some text which links to the photo or
video on Facebook. Just add the following to the **Custom JavaScript** section
of our plugin (Customize > Misc > Custom JavaScript) and it should add it for
you:
* ```
$('.cff-photo-post, .cff-video-post').each(function(){
var $self = $(this),
mediaLink = ' View Photo on Facebook';
if( $self.hasClass('cff-video-post') ) mediaLink = ' View Video on Facebook';
$self.find('.cff-post-text').after(''+mediaLink+'
');
});
```
* I’ve made a note to add this into the next update too. Thanks for the suggestion!
🙂
* In regards to the YouTube plugin issue you mentioned, if you can open a support
ticket either here on the [WordPress.org forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-facebook-feed),
or on [our website](https://smashballoon.com/custom-facebook-feed/support/),
then I can look into this for you.
* Many thanks,

* Hey [@rageragerage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rageragerage/),
* I just wanted to follow up to let you know that I just released an update to
the plugin (2.4.1) based on your feedback, which includes an icon and link to
the photo or video on Facebook when a post contains one. Let me know what you
think of this enhancement.
* Thanks again for your feedback, and if you have any further suggestions or comments
then please let me know, as I’m always trying to improve the plugin for our users.
* John
