How can I reuse an existing FluentPlayer video in a FluentCommunity post?

Hi team,

I have a video already uploaded to FluentPlayer on the same WordPress website as FluentCommunity. I’d like to add that existing video to a community timeline post, keeping its thumbnail and player settings.

The FluentPlayer integration and video uploads are enabled. However, the β€œAttach Media” window only shows Oembed, HTML code, and Upload Video. I can’t find an option to select an existing video from my FluentPlayer library.

Is there a supported way to embed an existing FluentPlayer media item in a community post, using its ID, shortcode, or URL?

Uploading the same video again on the same website seems unnecessary and creates duplicate files. Ideally, I’d expect a β€œSelect from FluentPlayer library” option.

Am I missing something, or is this functionality not available yet? If not, please consider this a feature request.

Thank you!

I am looking forward to this. I think it will happen very soon πŸ˜€

This is a must integration! It has been addressed before and I hope the team is listening and will be able to release it soon.
