Ho segnalato il problema a Jetpack ma non mi hanno nemmeno dato risposta. VideoPress non salva le configurazioni che inserisco ad ogni video, ne le impostazioni, titolo, flag ecc…. Ho fatto cancella cache ma nulla. Ho provato inoltre a sconnettere Jetpack, mi dice sconnesso, poi faccio aggiorna pagina ma in realtà non si scollega e resta connesso. Non funziona nulla. VideoPress is having problems. I reported the problem to Jetpack but they haven't even responded. VideoPress doesn't save the settings I add to each video, nor the settings, title, flags, etc. I cleared the cache but nothing. I also tried disconnecting Jetpack, it says disconnected, then I refresh the page but it doesn't actually disconnect and stays connected. Nothing works. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e6dd65b750cd656c720819e5dda419dd88d147717943ae1c554e0354008e8c12? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Does what it needs to, but you’ll need half a day to figure out how to cancel.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/vampires-youll-need-half-a-day-to-figure-out-how-to-cancel/)󠁿 [kannyman](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ryankanwal/) May 17, 2026 2 replies The plugin does what it says on the tin. It is a great way to embed videos into your Wordpress website using the native 'media upload' tab. But trying to cancel… best of luck with that! You'll navigate through a complex web of going from your Wordpress.org site to your Wordpress.com account with buttons that link to random places and a UX that generally makes it difficult to cancel your paid subscription. The reason I cancelled also is because I host a number of videos on different domains for me/clients and Jetpack only allows 1x subscription per domain, which then gets expensive on multiple sites. If they allowed you to host videos from one paid subscription for several different WP installs, I would have probably stayed. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/92343b4d1237ed6e79682f92c990b0a0d6894b8d957519fe58650a691b153d59? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[ADD MONITISATIONS](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/add-monitisations/)󠁿 [qhrlysterss](https://profiles.wordpress.org/qhrlysterss/) November 21, 2024 1 reply DEVELOPERS KINDLY MAKE IT IN MONITISATIONS TO ALLOWED USERS ON ADMINISTRATION TO SELL OR RENT THEIR CONTENTS.
