 * Thumnail size is now the same as the main featured player and the whole layout
   of my site is F****d. Can anyone advise on the new shortcode settings for thumbnail
   width?? The new version changed them.
 * width=”” width_type=”” thumbnailwidth=””? Nothing seems to be working.

 * Thanks cuongeu, but this doesn’t show me anything, it only shows me how to input
   the youtube gallery widget into a sidebar. If i wanted to know this i would have
   asked. I need to know how to get the formatting right on the page using shortcode.
   If you can help me with this issue i would appreciate it

 * It appears that the dev team broke out all the functions and didn’t realize that
   the short code was affected when they created “youtube-channel-gallery/templates/
   thumb.php” The variable that is set for the “width” for the WIDGET, is the killer
   for the SHORTCODE issue (from what I’ve found).
 * I made the following update and it appears the Shortcode thumbnail size is fixed
   for me.
 * Goto PLUGINS > EDITOR and select “Youtube Channel Gallery” from the drop down.
   then select “youtube-channel-gallery/templates/thumb.php” .
 * from there replace: $ytchag_thumb_width with $ytchag_thumbnail_fixed_witdh
 * Test!
 * basically it was pulling the wrong value and defaults to the assigned width for
   the video player.

 * Ok thanks xealous. I changed the shortcode value from thumbnailwidth=”” to thumbnail_width
   =”” and that worked. Only problem is description text underneath the thumbnails
   is still in a super narrow column and the height is like 500px per super narrow
   column of text. I would like the text to be around 50-100px tall and the width
   of the thumbnail, its currently set to about 30px width. Any ideas? Thanks man
   i would appreciate it.

 * Ok Xealous i worked around the thumbnail titles with CSS but i cannot figure 
   out the thumbnail paragraph descriptions.

   Take a look underneath the main image there are popular videos on the left hand
   side. The video descriptions need to be around the same size as the title in 
   the same layout underneath the image. More CSS? Thanks
