Video plays counting | WordPress.org

[ad_1]

Hi Kyle,

you are mentioning this in the latest update: “Switched custom database query for looking up attachment IDs via URLs to the WordPress function attachment_url_to_postid() which could result in some video URLs no longer returning attachment IDs when the video player code is generated. That would prevent features like video play counting, and would only apply to shortcodes that don’t include attachment IDs. Please let me know if this happens to you.”

Does it mean that we can’t rely on the data sent to GA4 any more? I have sites under contracts where we are responsible for video statistics reporting.

I can’t update untill this issue is 100% resolved. Can you please mention in the next update(s) if analytics are reliable again?

Best regards,
Pavel.
