Allow users to post their videos to my wordpress website?
I think the best approach would be to only save a post meta value ( [or use a custom table][1] ) which indicates that a video upload should happen.

It worked correctly for me, however I used the wp_enqueue_scripts hook to add the JavaScript. function mytheme_enqueue_scripts() { wp_register_script(‘facebook-video’, ‘https://connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v3.3’, ”, ”); wp_enqueue_script(‘facebook-video’); } add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘mytheme_enqueue_scripts’); Do you see any errors in your browser console or network tab?

WordPress supports the following video file types: .mp4, .m4v (MPEG-4), .mov (QuickTime), .wmv (Windows Media Video), .avi, .mpg, .ogv (Ogg), .3gp (3GPP), and .3g2 (3GPP2) From the “Uploading Files” Codex.
