Easy Digital Downloads HSS Extension for Streaming Video

Does this work with other video platforms

No this only works with the HostStreamSell video platform

How do I style the text which appears above the video player to say whether

it is the trailer or full video?

Add the following to your theme’s style.css to for example make the text centered, and the text red for the trailer and green for the full video:

.hss_watching_trailer_text { text-align:center; color:red; }
.hss_watching_video_text { text-align:center; color:green; }

You can set what the text says (or whether to show any text at all through the plugin’s settings)

How do I manually add video access for a user?

In your WordPress dashboard, go to your list of users. Mouse over a user in the list and you will see a new Add Video Access link to the right of the Edit and Delete links. This will bring you to another page where you choose the video access you want to add for this user and press the Add Video Access button. Note that a new payment entry will be added for this user which shows $0.00, and the user will be sent an email just as if they had purchased the video.
