Hi there,
I'm confused! In one of my website (dev2.agenceitech.ca) i have many video posts.
But I'd like to have a video as featured image. I know it's possible, I saw it on other websites with GP.

What I do is :
I add the video link on the article.
I change the post format to video.
I publish.

But no featured image.
When I go to the article, I see the video!

Thanks for your quick reply Leo.
Followed each step and didn't work again :/

Did I miss something?
Try using the Embed link with the <iframe> provided by YouTube.
Looks like you still have featured image inserted?
No I don't :/

Can you provide a link to your site?
Do you have image added here? https://docs.generatepress.com/article/page-header-image/
I don't. Should I add some?
Then you might have some caching issue going on because currently I see this image being added to the first post: http://dev2.agenceitech.ca/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Comment-accéder-Netflix-US.png
Any caching plugin or server caching?
Oh, it should not happen, caching has been disabled. I'll into it!
Now this page: http://dev2.agenceitech.ca/ is actually just a static page and all the contents are from Elementor:
Yes I know. Is that a problem? :/
Is it why it doesn't have a video as featured image?
