Missing Video post format in Twenty eleven theme

    Hello,
    1 year ago I used this theme and now I decided to go back to it.
    But when writing a new post I noticed that there is no Video post format as option. Where it is gone? Please bring it back.

    In the documentation of the theme is said:

    Twenty Eleven features seven Post Formats that help the look of your blog posts better match what you’re publishing.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  • I can see Video format is missing despite the theme documentation showing Video format. I can’t find any information on why it is missing.

    However, does it really bother you? What happens if you just paste the url of your video in the post editor?

    Yes, I’m using Post formats and use only themes supporting Gallery, Video and Image post formats.
    It’s very useful because when you click on the link of one of the three it shows all posts form given format.
    Also if the theme doesn’t support and then switch to one that supports I must edit many posts.
    So for me personally the mentioned three above post formats are of importance :)

  • Hi there – Thanks for alerting us to the discrepancy between the theme and the showcase page. We’re looking into what may have happened to the video post format in Twenty Eleven and will keep you posted here.

  • We’ve added the video post format back to Twenty Eleven on WordPress.com.

    It had been removed when we synced up the theme with the self-hosted version – since it’s a default theme, we bring changes over from the version on WordPress.org – which had taken out the video post format at some point. We’re still investigating the history behind its removal, but it’s back now on WordPress.com.

    Thanks for noticing the discrepancy and letting us know.
