I've got a problem with youtube.
I suddenly only see an icon with the link behind it, but film won't embed.

When I try to embed this link for example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGtk1dHLSKM

It will look like:
[icon here] YouTube - Johnny Winter playing Red House in 1991

When I put my mouse over it, it says:
External Embedding not Available.

How can I fix this? I already tried reinstalling the product and also deleting all definitions and importing new ones.
And the Validation Regex box is empty!
When I disable extraction globally and edit/save a post, the video's become embedded double with some strange text between them. When enabling extracting globally, only icons with links remain. This goes for ALL youtube video's.

I'm using VBulletin 3.8.5. and Ame 2.5.

See Post #2, No. 2 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1662802&postcount=2). There is no problem whatsoever. :)





My own question regarding self hosted video (i.e., wmv) on what folks may be doing here in conjunction with AME.

Currently, I have a /videos directory for which I upload such files. Then use the AME internal linking to present. Recommendations on implementing access to non-admins? Just create an FTP account for that folder only? Is there a hack (e.g., downloadsII) that could be mated in combination for a non-admin (general ugroup)?

Thanks for any ideas, recommendations, and direction!

Thank you but I've read that already before I posted my question.

But it's with ALL youtube video's, so there -is- a problem and it has nothing to do with disabled embedding by request whatsoever, unless all Youtube movies have it setup that way. Can't imagine that.:)
Can't find the embed code either on Youtube.

Ok. I'm running AME 2.5.6, which differs from your 2.5.

Here is my youtube definitions for quick comparison if you like:

Regular Expression: http://[\w]+\.youtube\.[\w]+/watch\?v=([\w-]+)[\w&;=-]*[\#t=]*([\d]*)[&;10shdq=]*

Replacement: <object width="$ameinfo[width]" height="$ameinfo[height]">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/$p1&fs=1&start=$p2"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/$p1&fs=1&start=$p2" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="$ameinfo[width]" height="$ameinfo[height]" wmode="transparent"></embed></object>

Validation:
value=&quot;http://www\.youtube\.com/v/([\w\-]*)?&amp;

Hope that helps! Now if someone would kindly comment on my Local Hosted Media question from Post #1511! :D

I've used this free script as a nifty way for users to upload their own files to one of my directories via the web (no ftp needed):
http://www.solitude.dk/filethingie/
You can put it in an iframe in a custom vb page to make it look like part of your forum... However you will have to work within your file upload max size limit, might be too small for videos.

Ok. I'm running AME 2.5.6, which differs from your 2.5.
I'm running that one too. It just says 2.5 here on vb.org but the downloaded version is 2.5.6 so we have the same one.

The only difference between us is that I had no validation code and my regular expression was slightly different from yours, like this:
http://[\w.\]+youtube\.[\w]+/watch[\?\#!]+v=([\w-]+)[\w&;+=-]*[\#t=]*([\d]*)[&;10shdq=]*

The replacement code was the same. I now took over all your code, have "extract destination data" set to "yes" and saved a post, but the same problem still occurs.
I already tried several solutions given from page 92-100, nothing works.

Strange thing is that also with some older posts, the images are visible, but are present 2 times with some code in between. The solution given to that problem however, does not work either.
So thank you for trying to help, but it seems not as easy as to read some posts here to find the solution I guess. Tried that already.:)

Then about Downloads II. You could use that to provide certain upload rights. The problem however would be linking to those files then, because your users would not know the filename on the server.
For example, if you upload a file called mymusic.mp3 with DownloadsII, the file will be called something like 4472-mymusic.mp3 because Downloads II will generate a number for every upload made and they all com into 1 directory.
So I guess you can probably better try a script like BirdoPrey5 suggested.

Now I hope Cyb will come by and fix my Ame problem.:D

Hi, it doesn't look like the Fox News one is working anymore. I just tried it with this video, with both the address in the address bar, as well as the location given when you select "Link to this Video" in the "Share" section, but neither displays the video. Still shows up as a link. Please help! :(

Any chance that Xtranormal can be done? Its a site where you can create your own movies, they have a player that can be embedded.

Link to one movie - http://www.xtranormal.com/watch?e=20090309003450386

<embed src = "http://www.xtranormal.com/players/jwplayer.swf" width = "500" height = "350" allowscriptaccess = "always" allowfullscreen = "true" flashvars = "height=350&width=500&file=http://video.xtranormal.com/highres/20090309/ea265ebc-0c5b-11de-a091-001b210ae39a_3.flv&image=http://video.xtranormal.com/highres/20090309/ea265ebc-0c5b-11de-a091-001b210ae39a_3_0.jpg&searchbar=false&autostart=false"></embed>

OK cool... so I decided to start my test with an Embed Code for www.jigzone.com - Embedded Jigsaw Puzzle...

The URL to a puzzle is like this:


http://www.jigzone.com/puzzles/72150F6C117?m=D9250BFF3C.954C2C6&z=6


The Embed Code is:

<script src="http://www.jigzone.com/zes?i=72150F6C117&amp;m=D9250BFF3C.954C2C6&amp;z=6" type="text/javascript"></script>


The only numbers that matter are 72150F6C117 and 6 the numbers in-between (D9250BFF3C.954C2C6) don't mean anything of value.

So I made the Regex which matches perfect in Regex Buddy so I know it's right:

http://www\.jigzone\.com/puzzles/([\w]+)\?m=[\w]+.[\w]+\&[a-z]=([\d]+)


And use this replacement:

<script src="http://www.jigzone.com/zes?i=$p1&amp;m=AE250BFF3C.930EFB0&amp;z=$p2" type="text/javascript"></script>


And everything should work, right?

NOPE...

Instead of getting an embedded puzzle I get simply an all text URL not even a link, just the URL as plain text.

Exactly this:

http://www.jigzone.com/puzzles/72150F6C117?m=D9250BFF3C.954C2C6&z=6


When I look in the source code the AME template is never invoked...

I've narrowed it down to a problem with the "z" near the end (z=6). If I remove the z from the regular expression AND the URL it works! But I need the z because I need to specify the second parameter (6) in this case.

Anyone got any ideas? I really thought I had these regex's down pat until this roadblock.

Oh, one more thing, I changed 'z' in the regex to [\w] and it partially works... The puzzle embeds but not correctly, the z parameter isn't parsed in the embed code and ;z=6 in plain text displays immediately after every puzzle... It's outside the AME template in the source code and I have no clue where it's coming from... it almost looks like a bug in AME maybe...

Just to make sure I wasn't missing something totally I was able to get a working definition for Twitvid.com (twitter video).

BirdOPrey5
11-30-2010, 06:26 AM
Eureka... I had to realize that after vBulletin mangled the URL it changed the "&" to "&amp;"so I had to adjust the regular expression to work with either/or... Working great now.

Well since I mentioned it I'll put the file here I'll also stop polluting Digital Jedi's thread with this stuff.

Jigzone Embed - when you make a puzzle go to "Open Puzzle" copy the URL of the open puzzle in the browser and paste it into your post... Change the last number (usually 6) to whatever number corresponds to to the puzzle type you want. (0 = 48 piece jigsaw)

Guys, be careful about seconding requests on my website. I'm doing all requests, if I can, and in the order they were requested. So if you bump a request, you're effectively moving it to the bottom of the list.

I'm sorry I haven't been able to be on top of this like I used to. This year was a bad year for doing anything outside of caring for my daughter. That seems to have consumed my time for 2010. I haven't given up on doing definitions. I'm simply running into a lot of hurdles getting the updates to you. It's just a matter of time, really. I'll try to get to your support questions if I can as well.

No worries on my end DJ. I appreciate the forward notice, even though I don't think it was necessary for you to explain. ;)

I at least will give a go at trying to create my definition in the meantime. If you get to it, then great, if not, that is fine too.

Hopefully I can get a small update to you in a few days. I must be more cautious when I say that, though, since every time I say that, something like a tree falls on my internet connection...or my house. So I'll just say, I'm working towards that... and leave it at that. <looks up nervously>

I noticed when someone links to an article on ESPN it tried to embed a video even though it's not a video just an article, so a big ugly black box shows up instead of a link. Is there a way around this? I had to disable ESPN videos because of this.
It should be noted that AME can be disabled per post by the user posting, for this very reason. I'll try to take a look at it and see why articles are now converting.


HI

when do you think you will release the VB4.0.6 version ?
I haven't been able to work on 4.0 definitions in quite some time, but last I heard, development for 4.0 stopped a few months ago. I don't know that the 4.0 version of AME works with new boards anymore.


flickr isn't working right for me... I had to disable all flckr definitions... links to flickr images were being show as if they were videos which then didn't work.
Flickr hasn't been very keen on maintaining a strict URL structure. If they keep this up, either I'm going to have to just instruct folks to turn AME off when posting pics, or drop the Flickr definitions altogether.

Black Tiger, I'm certain I posted a reply to you last night, along with some others, but my post seems to have vanished. Hrm...

In short, I said I only got a chance to skim some posts, but it sounds to me like you have more than one YouTube definition. Your fixing one, but the other one is still trying to convert at the same time. Remember that when you upgrade or reinstall AME it reinstalls the default Amazon and YouTube definitions, which are both outdated. My definition should be the one with (With Deep Linking Support - Seconds Only) in the description. You should delete/disable the other one. (It should probably have a funny looking key name and be way near the bottom.) Note that I'm not referring to the definitions with (YouTube) in parenthesis in the title. Those are fine.

This is another one I was sure I replied to last night, but is gone now. Gah...

Fox News just appears to need an update. MSNBC is still working, but the link you posted is not a video URL, but an article page with a video on it. AME converts specific URL strings, not just a page that happens to have media embedded in it. It identifies pages based on the URL and not the content of the page. Hence, no conversion here.

This is a carryover moved to this thread on DJ's request. I'm finding that the Amazon definition only works for certain types of Amazon links. For example, if you search an item on Google and copy the hyperlink from the results, it usually works fine. That is generally because the link is relatively short, ending in the product ID number, and so the definitions parse and append the affiliate tag ?tag=yourtag-20 correctly.

The problem is with other links, like those you often get from a search at Amazon.com. These results have longer URLs, usually containing a ? in them, like the phrase ?ie=UTF . If you append the affiliate tag above, like the one included in the definition, it does not validate. In this case, if you append the tag &tag=yourtag-20 it does validate.

You can't simply change to &tag, though, because it won't validate with the shorter Amazon URLs. Yes, if you do the URLs yourself, you can always get it to work, but the point is that you want it to automatically append a valid tag to any amazon link a member posts and you don't know what type of format it will have.

So far, my solution is to append the following tag to any type of Amazon URL:

?tag=yourtag-20&tag=yourtag-20

This seems kind of redundant, but so far it has validated in the Amazon link checker utility on all the tests I've tried, including when it gets redirected to a mobile site on a phone.

Anyone have a better definition than this common one posted by BirdOPrey5?

Due to some bad record keeping (or lack thereof) I can't quite tell if I updated Amazon since the last posted update. Let me verify what your saying, though. Are you adding the tag to the URL your posting, or is this tag in the definition itself? If your using my Amazon defs, my old Amazon tag is still in there, so it would need to be edited. As I recall, if you don't take my tag out and try to use appended tags when posting, you run into that issue.

If not, can you give me some of the links in question you've run into problems with so I can test them. I know I worked on Amazon recently and made some significant changes to the RegEx, but I can't quite remember what that was due to the aforementioned poor record keeping.

I already wiped them and reinstalled the ones from this thread yesterday, but you can do it again if you want.
I don't have any custom definitions installed, so go ahead.;)

The only custom definition is a youtube custom bbcode which was made last week, but that should not be of any influence. This will be removed when Ame is working again.

Okay, you have something going on deeper than just a definitions issue. When I wiped your definitions set, the post still tried to convert. With no definitions. That's definitely not normal. I suspect something happened during your installation. What I suggest you try to do is reupload all the files again and reimport the product as if you were doing an upgrade. Delete the default definitions, then do a test post, with no definitions installed, and see if it still tries to convert. If so, you may need to uninstall and do a clean install.

I am using the same definition as BirdOPrey posted in that link that I think is the same as yours (unless you updated since my last download), except, of course, I substitiuted my affiliate tag in the replacement box.

So, for example, the AME replacement validates fine for me with this link found via Google searching for "nuclear duct tape"

http://www.amazon.com/3M-8979N-Performance-Nuclear-Slate/dp/B000NG3ZKI

It does not validate if I copy the same search results from Amazon and get this URL:

http://www.amazon.com/3M-8979N-Performance-Nuclear-Slate/dp/B000NG3ZKI/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1291492788&sr=8-5

Now, if I change the replacement definition from ?tag=affiliate-20 to ?tag=affilliate-20&tag=affiliate-20 then it works in both cases, though it seems like there could be a better way.

I hope that all made sense. I'm not an expert with how AME works or the definitions, just seeking the optimal way to do Amazon affiliate codes;-)

Edit- Verified my definition is exactly the same as the one in the current download, except I'm using the "double" replacement tag above now. Prior to that it was identical except that I used my tag instead of yours in the replacement area.

The update method (reuploading files and re-importing/overwriting xml file) did not fix the problem.
I had to really uninstall Ame 2.5.6. After that, I reinstalled 2.5.6, removed the standard definitions and imported these here.
After that everything worked again with new posts. With old posts I have to use the edit and save button for the movie window to appear.

Best I could tell "Local Links" used to be included but they aren't in the latest definition anymore. I don't know why, may have been causing errors. But if you had an old version that's probably what was doing it.

I haven't logged into Amazon in a while, since they closed all North Carolina accounts, but I'm wondering if the Link Checker is giving a false positive here. It seems to be looking at everything after the first question mark and checking it against your ID. For thumbnails, I tried a few things, but everything nerfs the ability to pull the correct image. I think I may be able to fix it for basic linking, but there's a possibility that you'll occasionally get the wrong URL.

This works on the basis of adding cookies to the user's computer, right? Is there a way to check for these and rather then validate against the Link Checker, validate against whether the cookie was added to a computer or not? Say, from a computer that hasn't visited an Amazon link with your ID.

Unfortunately, yes. Posts that were using your temporary BBCode, however, can be changed in the AME CP's Tools menu. That was a very unusual error, but I could tell something was wrong when I cleaned out the defs and the product kept trying to convert it. It's like a definition got "stuck". Hope that corrects your issues.

I mentioned this during a previous update, but I had to drop ***Internal Linking for the time being, as it had a lot of problems. I'm developing a new set called vBulletin Linking, but that's still in the works and not completely bug free yet.

From what little I could find in this thread about your Internal Linking codes I gathered you had a set- maybe different one for threads, forums, profiles, etc... I found this a little confusing. I made a custom internal links regex that works on all internal links no matter what type of page is linked and it's worked for me on all the links I've tried- threads, forums, profiles, etc...

The regex I'm using is:
http://www\.juot\.[a-z]+/([\w/.?=$#&;]*)
and the replacement is:
<img src="/forums/images/icons/juoticon.GIF" border="0" align="absmiddle" />&nbsp;<a href="/$p1&$p2">$ameinfo[title]</a>

which puts a small icon before the link and the title of the page as the link. It's been working for a few days and I've tried every URL combo I could think of including with styles and search highlights.

Is there any danger in using this if it seems to work?

(note I didn't include "net" in my URL because some people visit me on juot.co instead of juot.net.)

If you had Local Hosted media definitions installed, it would cause a conflict. Then when media was posted, both definitions would try to convert in the post.

The reason you try not to be too broad with definitions your distributing to the public is you never know when you don't want a page converting or you want a particular URL string to do something else. Case in point, I like having user profile links auto convert. I did not like that it put "Username- City of Gamers Online Community". I just wanted the username and I didn't want to change title of my pages just to accommodate that. The same with thread titles. I would get the full name of the thread and the full name of my site, and again, I didn't want to pull my site name out of the pages, and I doubted that users of the def would, too. Also, people might not want every page on their forum to convert, just certain aspects. Granular control seemed to make sense in this case.

**UPDATES**
Sleepy as all heck, but I've got a few defs to release tonight. There here individually, or you can get them from the Master XMlL.


Updated Definitions

Amazon (Thumbnails)
This is a totally new definition, folks. So if you use it, keep in mind some of your older posts might not change over to it. It's cleaner and easier on the eyes than the original. You also need to add the following image to your images/misc folder.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2013/02/55.png

Dailymotion and Dailymotion (Short URL)
Updated Dailymotion, as well as created a def to embed videos based on the Short URL they give you for posting videos to Twitter.

EA Sports
You no longer need the EA Sports (Highlight Reel) definition. This one covers them all.

Flickr (Photostreams) and Flickr (Sets)
Should no longer conflict with video URLs. (Photostreams) embeds the default photostream in a user profile, while (Sets) embeds the photostreams from user Sets.

Flowrestling
Updated def seems to work 100% of the time, but occasionally can't pull a video thumbnail. Will ignore a YouTube video and post an auto formated link instead.

Fox News
Your Fox News (Old) definition is useless now, so you can delete it, if you want. I'm actually quite proud of this one, but it's for totally technical, geeky reasons.

JustinTV (Live)
Delete your JustinTV (Live 2) definition, as this one covers it now.

Photobucket (Videos)
Should no longer conflict with image URLs and should keep your old FLV videos embedded if you haven't changed anything since last update.

Digital Jedi
12-06-2010, 05:02 AM
Updated Definitions Continued...

Scribd (Full Screen URL)
Your old Scribd definition will not work anymore. Sad to say, Scribd has multiple parameters that need to be accounted for and doesn't put them anywhere where AME can find them. My compromise was to create this definition which will embed the link Scribd gives you for the Full Screen version of a document.

The Daily Show (Clips) and The Daily Show (Old)
You'll need both of these, one for embedding new clips and the other to make sure your old clips remain embedded.

The Escapist
Vimeo


New Definitions

eBay (Thumbnails)
Three definitions required for this one. I'm still not sure if this is fully International yet. Did quite a bit of testing, but eBay is vast and easy to miss variations in the URL strings. You would also need to do what you need to do to make the Replacement HTML code affiliate-able. (New word.) You also need to add this image to your images/misc directory.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/02/5.gif

ProstoPleer
New music player website submitted by Vitaly (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?u=53016). Added it to the Master XML

Trailer Addict
What does it sound like?

Digital Jedi
12-06-2010, 11:22 AM
<u>Definitions Dropped</u>
Had to drop or combine these definitions into the main ones. If your doing a full wipe of your defs and installing the Master, then you need not worry looking for these. But if your doing individual definition imports, take note that you'll need to get rid of most of these.

Fox News (Old)
EA Sports (Highlight Reels)
JustinTV (Live 2)
Scribd

I don't really know about cookies, I've been using the checker and confirming with orders when I make one. There are a lot of combinations so I can't test them all, but so far I have since confirmed that my dual tag both validates and gives affiliate order credit to a previously unused tag, this was true from a desktop and via iPhone with a mobile redirect that further alters the URL.

I've also tested by ordering with other tag combinations and so far the only one that does not appear to have worked was the longer URL format that had a ? earlier in the URL and again for the tag. I only tested this via mobile. I will try it on desktop at some point too.

It shouldn't matter what folder they're in, as long as you only changed the name, and didn't add the domain extension or anything like that. In other words, all you should have added was "site", not "site.com" or anything else. And, of course, the file URLs should end in .mp3.

Let me know what you come up with. I worked on Amazon for a few hours and came up with workable definitions with the right URL, but they kept pulling incorrect images. Often it would pull the first image in the product suggestions.

On a side note, I'm wondering what you guys would like to see in a new version of AME. Try and think small for the time being. There are a few small bugs I'm going to try and fix, like the duplication with the default definitions and maybe add some more comprehensive Admin CP help. Anything small you'd like to see added?

So, when I do my revision of the AME product, I'm trying to come up with an appropriate and non-cofusting title. What do you guys think of AME: Legacy? :up::up: :erm:

I did quite a few test imports into your AME CP and at first, I thought it was a character limit set by your host. But further testing suggests that it might be that and something else. You might need to try reinstalling AME as if your were doing an upgrade. And if that doesn't seem to help, do a full uninstall/reinstall. Yeah, some older videos won't like that, but there's definitely an issue with the installation here. It seems I can finagle everything up to Guitar-Tube to import, and then nothing will import. You should at least be able to import these definitions in groups but something is preventing that.

So I had passive Video Lite installed. I have some youtube videos that were embed with that mod. When I disable that mod and enablethis mad the passive videos just show as links and not embedded videos. How can I get this mod to re-embed videos from passive video lite?
The backwards compatibility of AME works likes this. As I understand Passive Video, it parses links the same way as AME, using a RegEx pattern. With that said, AME includes BBCode for people who had been using tags to embed videos. Such as [YOUTUBE], [METACAFE], [VIMEO], etc. So AME has a tool you can run to replace all the old BBCode with it's [AME] tags so you can forget about having to keep the old tags available.

Now I could be wrong about Passive Video, but in order to backwards convert its videos en masse, AME would need to be able to find a tag to replace, and I don't believe PV uses anything like that. The videos can be edited one at a time, but other than those two options, there's no good way to correct that.

Also, we had some folks try installing both of these mods together before and they seemed to have some trouble when trying to fully uninstall Passive Vid. None of them ever got back to me on what exactly happened, but from what little I could glean, Passive Vid still left some info in the the database that caused a bit of conflict. I still don't know if it was Lite or the full version, but thought I should let you know.

|[ Friday Night Definitions ]|
Yes, I know it's Saturday. But like they say, it's always Friday somewhere in the world....wait...

Catching up on requested definitions over the last...erm, year. It's all packaged into one XML file here, so just import and select what you want. Here's the skinny on this update pack:

UPDATES
DOCS (.PDF, .PPT, .PPS and .TIFF Extensions) - Actually, this is an update of your exiting Local Hosted PDF definition. It will not import if you don't delete the old one. This new one includes support for locally hosted PDFs, Power Point Presentations and Slideshows, as well as support for TIFF files. It does all this via the schmancy Google Docs Viewer (http://docs.google.com/viewer) as the converter. So enjoy.

You do know what to do with this def, right? Change the name of my website (cogonline) to the name of your site. No .com, .co.uk, .net or anything else. Just the name. Also, to enable document download from your sever, just turn on the container. I have it turned off cause it's oogly.


NEW DEFINITIONS
authorSTREAM - Nifty little site that allows you to publish your magazines online.

FQuick - More motor oriented guy stuff.

NFL - Sweaty guy oriented guy stuff. Uh...

NothingToxic - Er, I tested what I could. Some of that stuff freaked me out. Also couldn't disable the auto play. Sorry. No workaround.

SoundClick - More music for you. Embeds their nice little media player.

SoundClick Playlists - These embed the playlist from the a SoundClick user's home page. There are four definitions for playlists here. You can only use one at a time, so I only have one turned on by default. Toggle the definitions according to which one of SoundClick's playlist players you want to use. They include a Basic, Premium, Store and VIP MP3 Player. Use whichever you like, but pick one and stick with it.

Wall Street Journal - You know, all that news stuff.

Wat.TV - I don't know Wat this is. Get it? Wat...what this is? [sigh] I need to eat...

At the moment, AME 3 has a way you can do that in the Read Me file. But right now AME 3 does not appear to be working with anything over vB 4.0.3, so keep that in mind. You can revert old videos to mere titled links in AME 2.5 before you upgrade by using one of the conversion options under Tools.

What MOD works best if one only wants to facilitate the use of YouTube, Facebook and Tweeter? Would BB Codes be a better solution?

I don't know what Tweeter is, but you could just use the YouTube and Facebook definitions if that's all you want.

If BBCodes were a better solution, AME wouldn't have ever been designed. The point of AME is to have a more lightweight conversion of videos, in addition to a "hey user, you need to do this if you want it to work"-free way of making the convert. Since you're only wanting to use two, then it's not as big a deal, depending on how many other custom BBCodes your using. But then, would you rather have to explain to users how to use the [YOUTUBE], [FACEBOOK] and other BBCodes, knowing full well some aren't even going to bother or understand (or even read the explanation) even after the explanation? Or would you prefer the videos convert without the user even having to even needing to know it's going to happen? So really, it's up to you.

When I tested her forum, it imported up to a certain number of definitions, no matter how many different ways you tried to import it. I did groups of ten, then groups of thirty, then sometimes just one. Each time, it would stop importing once her definitions set got to be around 50 or so.

It turns out this was a server issue. Something to do with MySQL restrictions, and when these were temporarily lifted, it 'imported like a charm'! :)

Good to know. What did they say needed to be lifted to allow for the import, just the number of MySQL queries per hour, or something like that?

I see no reason whatsoever why it would have anything to do with server load. The JavaScript file is used solely for usergroup permissions.

I had a couple of people ask me about this. If you actually WANT to register on my forum to keep track of updates to AME or my other vBulletin project developments, then I'll go ahead and allow for that. Previously, I had all that stuff blocked from Registered Users because I didn't want my users seeing a bunch of posts that had nothing to do with them or the site subject. I'll allow that now, but you'll have to join a special User Group in your profile called CoG in the Machine if you want to see anything. Registration is still not required.

Keep in mind that this won't exempt you from my semi-annual pruning of old users with 0 post count, so if you expect to keep your account in tact, at least say hello in the Intro/Farewell section. In addition, don't start using the forums as a way to get me to look at your posts. I'll see your posts where I always do, in this thread. Thanks.

eBay (Thumbnails)
Three definitions required for this one. I'm still not sure if this is fully International yet. Did quite a bit of testing, but eBay is vast and easy to miss variations in the URL strings. You would also need to do what you need to do to make the Replacement HTML code affiliate-able. (New word.) You also need to add this image to your images/misc directory.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/02/5.gif

Can we please get the eBay definition working with the Rewrite eBay links (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=144214&highlight=ebay) hack by Dismounted. That or find a way to add the eBay affiliate number to the eBay definitions.

I just updated this mod and it completely trashed my affiliate links. I had to remove the eBay definitions and exclude AME from the forums I use to post my affiliate links.

Im sure many others would love this integration. And thanks for this mod Ive been using AME since it came out.

You should only need to disable or delete the definition. Shouldn't have any affect on older links once removed. But yes, you always need to check for conflicts when two products are doing link rewrites.

I didn't do a lot with the eBay definitions only because I wasn't quite catching on to what an affiliated link would look like. If you can send me about a dozen samples of what affiliate links look like, I might be able to work something out.

I will try to do a definitions set for AME 3, but I'm not sure it will be worth the effort, as currently AME 3 doesn't seem to be working with new definitions. My goal is to rewrite AME 3 at some point in the future. And by "rewrite", that means just do what The Geek did and pretend I did it, too. =/

I believe you want to ask this in the AME 3 section. This is the AME 2.5 definitions thread.

It means you already have a YouTube definition that you need to get rid of, or untick the one you're trying to import for exclusion. Mine's more current, so you may want to backup the old one and delete it for the time being.

These definitions, when used with the AME mod itself, does indeed let you alter Amazon links to add your affiliate code, I used them like that for a while.

I know it works with Amazon USA, I'm not sure Amazon UK has a definition, but if it works like Amazon USA one could be made.

Use...
<object width="$ameinfo[width]" height="$ameinfo[height]">

If you want manual sizes then it's just the number, no px... so height="350" for example.

From your original post:

<object width="$ameinfo[425px]" height="$ameinfo[350px]">

<object width="425px" height="350px">

None of the above will ever work.

<object width="425" height="350">

This will work but it will always be the same size no matter what zone you are in.

<object width="$ameinfo[width]" height="$ameinfo[height]">

Is the correct code. You have 2 places in the embed code you need to use this (both in the OBJECT tag and the EMBED tag)

If this isn't working you probably need to check your zone settings in AME Settings because this code is absolutely correct.

Could help with regular expressions for this definition Google Docs Document (Word Processor Document):

Example:

The regex would be:

I fixed it like this... I had to edit the AME mod... Backup your original file if you try this.

In the includes directory find the file ame_bbcode.php

At line #589 find this code:


$title = trim(str_replace(array("\t","\n"), "", $match[1]));


Replace it with:


$title = trim(str_replace(array("\t","\n", "&rlm;", "&#x202a;", "&#x202c;"), "", $match[1]));


All I can promise is it's working for me. It won't fix links you've already made but should keep new ones clean.

Interesting... do you use a mod to change links into their titles too?

MagicThemeParks
05-24-2011, 11:57 PM
Not sure what you mean Joe. I only use AME, but I do run vBSEO if that tells you anything. The only other mod that may have something to go with links is Viglink which is the affiliate mod.

Thoughts?

BirdOPrey5
05-25-2011, 12:01 AM
What I mean if you post a URL like http://www.magicthemeparks.com/mk/forum does the forum automatically convert it to: Disney's Magic Kingdom Forums (http://www.magicthemeparks.com/mk/forum).

I'm pretty sure that is an option in VBSEO. (There's also a stand alone mod that does the same thing.) I'm thinking that mod might be overriding the AME title. I had the same issue on my board and had to modify the mod as well.

MagicThemeParks
05-25-2011, 12:22 AM
I believe that I have that mod installed over at MagicThemeParks.com, but not on WaltDisneyBoards.com (which is the one I'm referring to). Didn't need it since I have vBSEO on WDB.

If you have the option enabled in VBSEO, it works the same way as the mod- it reads the title in from the link, AME reads the title in from the link too. The fix I posted will trip these characters from the AME mod but you still need a way to strip it from VBSEO (if that option is turned on.)

If you can disable that option for a few minutes and try some more youtube posts, see if you still have the issue.

The title of the link should be: Logitech Performance Maus MX schnurlos schwarz: Amazon.de: Computer & Zubeh?r
AME is stopping at & Zubeh and it looks like this:

[ame="http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B002LXT852/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i4?pf_rd_m=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=0PCHNKQN86X6T7PBG95V&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=463375173&pf_rd_i=301128"]Logitech Performance Maus MX schnurlos schwarz: Amazon.de: Computer & Zubeh

youtu.be is a redirect page to the real youtube.com - so I have never been able to get titles to work with youtu.be links since the page doesn't have a title really- it's just a redirect.

If you need the title you will have to paste in the full youtube url instead of the youtu.be URL.

It's not really a big a deal since youtube displays the title in the video window itself.

07-26-2011, 12:23 PM
Ok, thanks. But I noticed that disabling all youtube definitions did not help with the problem: See this:

http://www.sims3forum.de/die-sims-3-videos-bilder/7349-die-sims-3-vampire-liebe.html

I have disabled all youtube definitions, and still it's screwed ...

Why?

PS. When I manually edit all older posts with youtube videos inside then it works well. But I can't manually edit all 10000 posts
The weird thing is: everything was working as expected until a few days ago. And we did not change a thing?!

UPDATE:
needed to update the post cache. seems to work now. but do you know how to get a larger youtube video window?

BirdOPrey5
07-26-2011, 12:47 PM
It's because they are cached that way. It's probably only one or two weeks of posts affected- now that it's working properly the old posts will get fixed in time.

I don't know of any way to speed this up other than to manually edit and re-save each post.

But in time it will get back to normal.

Also I was thinking about your youtu.be issue- I made a quick mod that will change youtu.be to youtube.com so it will always use the real youtube.com URL.

Please see this example:

I had to refresh the post cache in the admin control panel. And after I did this the charge-bbcode stopped working. There should be links inside the charge-codes, not random numbers.

THat's wrong:

should be:
my secret content

any idea on how to fix this?

BirdOPrey5
07-26-2011, 01:02 PM
I'm sorry I'm not familiar with vbcredits or the charge code at all. Sorry. Best to ask in the vbcredits thread, I'd imagine someone must have rebuilt their post cache with that mod before.

Off hand I would look at the instructions that came with vbcredits, maybe there is another "rebuild" option to run they tell you about.

Right, it pretty much ONLY works with the English language domain. The problem is none of the foreign language domains use the same, or consistent, HTML code.

And if I'm correct, you may find that no two Turkish pages are the same, from start to the first image file. It's unfortunate, really, because I really wanted to make it international.

95% is about code starts like this
/w/index.php?title=Dosya:Kasgarlimahmut.jpg&amp;filetimes tamp=20100924162456"

I will also try to create regexp code

The trick, though, will be getting to the image file. The problem I ran into is only the English pages use the same string of code for formatting images.

Is there something going on with 2K Sports..?

These highlight video wont show up, only a blank video window:
http://community.2ksports.com/community/media/viewer.cfm?mediaid=4207731


*edit*
I figured it out, its set up to only play trailers, etc. NOT player highlight vids.
Any way to make it work with the player/game highlights.?


Trailers work fine - http://www.2ksports.com/videos/new/all/318

Highlights dont - http://community.2ksports.com/community/media/viewer.cfm?mediaid=4207731

I'm currently not able to test 2K Sports, because the site's videos are not loading for me at all. There is a separate definition for Community links, but they could have changed the URLs again. I'll keep checking back to see if it's just a problem with my connection.

Time for another edition of...

|[ Friday Night Definitions ]|
Mostly updates in this package, as that's what I've been working on all week. Did a little condensing, adding and updating to existing websites, so check my notes below so you know what's what. It's important. Really. For those of you wanting just the new stuff, I've added those updates here in one XML. But you need to delete some stuff for it to work properly.

UPDATES
Blip - I've updated Blip (Show Pages) and added a general Blip definition, which we didn't have before. Please delete the definition called Blip (Permalink)

Break - I've condensed most Break definitions to just two: Break and Break (User Content). You'll no longer need Break (Originals), Break (Classics) and Break (Game Trailers). So please delete those three

EA Sports - Updated EA Sports and should no longer autoplay

eBaum's World - Updated eBaums's World and added eBaum's World (Old) for older URL strings. However, eBaum's World (Audio) is intermittently working now, and I'm not really sure why. Still working on this

GameVideos - Also updated

IGN - Updated the IGN definition and added IGN (Old)

Justin.TV - You'll no longer need Justin.TV (Live) and Justin.TV (Clips). Please delete them and use the one Justin.TV definition in this XML

MySpace - Updated MySpace and added MySpace (Old) for older links

Photobucket - Updated Photobucket (Videos) and added Photobucket (Direct Link) for the URLs provided by Photobucket

Ustream - Updated Ustream (Live) and Ustream (Recorded)

YouKu - Also updated YouKu and YouKu (Playlists)

YouTube - Updated YouTube, YouTube (Playlists), YouTube (User Profiles), Last FM (YouTube), PC Planets (YouTube Videos) to use YouTube's new iframe embed code. Also added support for YouTu.be short links called, you guessed it, YouTube (Short URL)


NEW DEFINITIONS
BBC International - I'm afraid I was only able to make this work with international BBC videos. English BBC doesn't provide compatible content for AME

Loombo - Video hosting website

SoundCloud - Included and tweaked a SoundCloud definition by StoneDragon (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?username=StoneDragon). Also added support for SoundCloud (Playlists)


DELETED
For a quick recap, you no longer need:

Break (Originals)
Break (Classics)
Break (Game Trailers)
Blip (Permalink)
Justin.TV (Live)
Justin.TV (Clips)

Also:
Google Video - Not really needed since Google Video closed down. Removed from the Master XML

From what I could see, it looks like your missing all the necessary AME templates. There should be three: ame_container, ame_nomedia and ame_output. For some reason, none of your styles has them. Try re-uploading all the AME files and then doing a fresh import of the AME product, just like if you were doing an upgrade. That should rebuild the templates your missing, unless something else is going on.

Digital Jedi
09-26-2011, 02:00 AM
I fixed it like this... I had to edit the AME mod... Backup your original file if you try this.

In the includes directory find the file ame_bbcode.php

At line #589 find this code:


$title = trim(str_replace(array("\t","\n"), "", $match[1]));


Replace it with:


$title = trim(str_replace(array("\t","\n", "&rlm;", "&#x202a;", "&#x202c;"), "", $match[1]));


All I can promise is it's working for me. It won't fix links you've already made but should keep new ones clean.

I had one small problem with this, and it's probably something I won't run into too often. Single quotes in the title caused a parse error with AME. I presume it's from this edt, but I haven't had a chance to verify that yet. When I get into this more, I'll see if I can find a fix.

Let me double check, because it may not have been just the title alone. I believe the video I tested included the video title in the embed code URL. So it might be rarer than I first suggested.

The short Youtube URL container just says short URL and doesn't have the title of the video in the container within our posts. Can you change that so the container shows the title of the video instead?

It can't, because AME reads the <title> of the URL. And youtu.be links are just redirect pages. They have no title, so AME has nothing to show.

To overcome this issue I made this little mod: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=267450

It turns the short URLs into the FULL URLs automatically when a post is made/saved.

Can I see your forum where they're not converting? If you're certain all your settings are correct, check to see that your ame_templates are still intact.

I don't immediately see any reason why they shouldn't be, presuming all your settings are correct. I can take a look at your Admin CP if you wish. But from this end, I don't see any reason they aren't converting.

IMDB should have never been in there. That was an accident a while back, and the reason why I didn't include them in the last update. IMDB will never work as long as they disallow hot linking. I'll look at Wikipedia.

There is a Wikipedia (Links) definition included in the Master XML. Just make sure to turn Wikipedia (Thumbnails) off when you turn it on and that you've uploaded the little W icon to your server.
