    Hello, I have a question.

    Does Geo Directoy supports .mov files? or is there an option to allow this file format?

    Also, Is there a function where you can add a “request more information” button that will send an email to the site admin owner and/or listing owner?

    GD doesn’t accept for reject formats, we just list the ones used by WP

    Send Enquiry

    Email to the listing owner is accomplished with an integration with Ninja Forms

    Hi Alex,

    It shows that .mov files are supported by GD & WP; however, I tested on the site we are using GD and it keeps on giving me an error showing the file is not supported.

    Could you please guide me in the right direction to fix this issue?

    I’m sorry, I sent the wrong link. That link is to wordpress.com which doesn’t represent the general capabilities of wordpress.org

    In this case GD doesn’t allow the .mov file extension, I will ask the developers if there is a workaround.

    Generally speaking I think the issue is that a player for .mov would need to be added. The file formats GD supports are “HTML5 compliant” types.

    Hello Colleen,

    We have added feature to show video in HTML5 media player if supported. It will be in next release. FPatch available at here : https://github.com/AyeCode/geodirectory/pull/1089/commits/1f8f91f9e0321d994ce942861df40e8a481de9c4

    If WordPress media allows to upload .mov file then there will be no issue in upload .mov file in GD.
    WordPress dos not show .mov file in media player. Add following PHP snippet to allow .move files with media player.

    

    function gd_snippet_wp_video_extensions( $video_extensions ) {
	$video_extensions[] = 'mov';

	return $video_extensions;
}
add_filter( 'wp_video_extensions', 'gd_snippet_wp_video_extensions', 20, 1 );
    

    Thanks,
    
Kiran
