I posted a discussion on CSS-Tricks the other day. Explaining that my Videos were not displaying on my Video page from my custom post type that I created using this tutorial. I thought I fixed the issue but it turns out the issue wasn't resolved.

Anyway, so I thought maybe the way I setup my CPT/Fields were messing things up. So I found another tutorial and redid the CPT and Fields, here is the new code.

I was able to get my Video ID field to save, but when I select "Youtube" or "Vimeo", then save, it just goes back to it's default option "Select". So when I view my page the container where the video should be placed is blank.

I am new to all of this Wordpress PHP so I have no idea if the select menu code is correct...or whatever the issue is. I'd appreciate any help to find the cause of this.

EDIT// After editing this line:

$ret .= '<script>jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery("#videotype").val(' . get_video_field("videotype") . ') });</script></div>';

to this:

$ret .= '<script>jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery("#videotype").val("' . get_video_field("videotype") . '") });</script></div>';`

The Selected Video Type can now be saved, but my issue with a blank container remains... I pasted the PHP section which should display the video in this pastebin.
