I could use a little help and clarification on displaying a group of videos in a category.
I have imported my videos using video categories. I am able to insert videos and using the short codes and this all works fine. But, what appears to me to be missing is a way to query all videos in a specific category.
Inserting shortcode such as [cbc_playlist videos="4723,4724,4725,4726,4727,4728"] is fine but that seems and odd way to display videos using a plugin that supports Auto Importing. Auto Importing is useless if every time a new video is downloaded you have to manually add new shortcodes to EVERY page/category that have videos.
Every Category has an ID number so why is there not a short code with something like [cbc_playlist category="2"] ? Is there a technical reason this is not available ? It seems so obvious to me so what am I missing ?
I am sure I can do this if I import my videos into a standard post type. And from the docs it looks like I can also use a custom menu to display video categories. But doesn’t it me sense to be able to do this through a short code ?
