Comment (by nilovelez):
Right now the process is quite... sketchy.
- A contributor uploads the video file via custom form that uses Ajax to
send the data
- and action in wp-ajax creates a post draft, with form fields added as
hidden postmeta
- The video is copied to the media gallery, VideoPress processes it and it
is inserted as a shortcode into the post's content
- A moderator edits the draft. There's a metabox that shows all the hidden
custom fields in a form.
- Each field as an "accept" button that copies the data to the
corresponding metabok (wikes!)
- The moderator picks the thumbnail and publishes the posts.
In the next version, all metadata will be added directly to its
corresponding metabox, and the video as a videopress block.
Right now I am cleaning dependencies from the theme (everything is
hardcoded) and moving it to a plugin. Once everything is tested it would
be much faster to move forward.
Mi priority right now is to patch the video thumbnails selector so I can
be working on the new version without that added pressure
