Video Directory Module for vBa CMPS

[KW802]

Attached is a vBa CMPS (http://www.vbadvanced.com) module to show videos from your installation of Video Directory (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=192241).

I have included some basic options so you can select the number of videos to be listed, whether the module should be oriented vertically or horizontally, and also which videos are to be shown (random, newest, best rated, or most viewed).

Development was done with vBulletin 3.7.4, Video Directory 1.1.0 RC2, and vBa CMPS 3.0.1 but should work with whatever version of vB and/or CMPS that you have your Video Directory installed at.

UPDATES
2008-12-17 = Fixed display issue when viewed with IE (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1687601). File renamed V2.

Sorry, I should have included some basic instructions. I am so entrenched in the vBa CMPS world that I sometimes forget that people might be installing a module for the first time and not sure what to do. The instructions from Yakuza35 is all that's needed.

After uploading the module, did you add the module to your main page?

[Khalat]

After uploading the module, did you add the module to your main page?


yes added to the main CMPS page ( center Black ) .

[KW802]

yes added to the main CMPS page ( center Black ) .What version of Video Directory are you using? What version of CMPS are you using?

Do you have any hacks installed (eg: cache hacks, etc.) that might be affecting variables in memory?

[Khalat]

Thanks for your reply .
video directory version 1.1.0 RC 2
Vbadvanced CMPS 3.0

[Khalat]

Thanks , Problem fixed .
the problem caused by missing the modules template on my style ...
after creating thous template on my style it shown perfectly ...

[AWMGolfer]

Works great but I am having a weird issue. I have it setup in the settings to show three videos and when logged in it shows up as it has been setup to show. However, when someone is not logged in it only shows one video instead of three. I made sure the permissions we correct and they are, though it wouldn't show any if they were wrong. Just wondering if you know what might be causing this. Thank you in advance for any and all help!!

Thank you in advance for any and all help!!Is it possible that there is only video in a Video Directory category that guests have permissions to?

[AWMGolfer]

*Homer moment*

Yeah...that took care of it..lol. Thanks again for a wonderful module, now I just need to actually look at my screen when setting it up :)

How do we remove the text description under the thumbnail of the video?

[bongwater]

How do we remove the text description under the thumbnail of the video?

template adv_portal_cmpsvids_bits

simply remove

$video[title]

[indie2industry]

Just to tidy up the Vba Module.


Go to AdminCP --> vBa CMPS --> Edit Modules --> Videos --> Edit Module

Go To Module Wrapper Template Options

Find Module Link and in that area put

{$vbulletin->options[bburl]}/video.php{$vbulletin->session->vars[sessionurl_q]}

That way, people can just click on the word "Videos" from the module to go to the video directory:D

[ArnyVee]

Nice job indie2industry! :D

Unfortunately, since I have custom wrappers (and still haven't figured out how to put the little links within them), it won't help me. But, that's a nice touch for those using the default (or correct working ones! :) ) modules. :up:

[KW802]

Unfortunately, since I have custom wrappers (and still haven't figured out how to put the little links within them)...Hit me up over at vBa.com and we'll try point you in the right direction. ;) Likely your custom wrapper(s) are just missing the title variable.

[jlew24asu]

this works great but the thumbnails of the video are not being shown. any reason why?

[KW802]

this works great but the thumbnails of the video are not being shown. any reason why?If they are working within Video Directory then they should be working in module.

Hit me up with a PM where you have the module appearing and I'll take a look; maybe there is a condition I am not accounting for.

[WarLion]

why this happen i go to admincp>>vba cmps>>download / upload module
import the prouct but still tell me this
"The file you have uploaded is not a valid module file."

i have vba 3.0.1
an video directory 1.1.0 rc 2

i need help please

[jlew24asu]

edit fixed.

[EWGF]

This module is worth gold. Activity at the video directory has been more than doubled :)

[Saint_I_Am]

I've added another style and can't get the videos to show on the new template? Any ideas?

[ArnyVee]

Hit me up over at vBa.com and we'll try point you in the right direction. ;) Likely your custom wrapper(s) are just missing the title variable.

Thanks Kevin, I sure could use the help! :D

I'll head over there and ask away :up:

Edited: Here's the thread I started...wanted to make it easy for you to find it! :D

Good job Jaxel.. I'll install this after your release.

my mistake, sorry. I figured it out

[WarLion]

i just unistall
the coder never response for a help, here and via pm

[KW802]

i just unistall
the coder never response for a help, here and via pm(a) I never respond to unsolicited PMs; if you want private one-on-one support, there are alternative means for getting that. (b) You apparently think that the somebody else is able to provide you with what you want in a different thread, so go with that route instead.

Good luck.

I do not care if you use anything from me; that is your choice. But if you're are going to take that stance, then you should un-install the module that you got in the other thread as well. ;)

Again, good luck. If you find a solution that works for you, then good to hear.

sheesh. that guy was rude.

KW, I runa photography forum, I love that site you have in your sig. is that your site? can I post it in my forums as a source?

[KW802]

sheesh. that guy was rude.I can honestly understand the frustration of having problems and not finding help but getting aggravated to that level is just unreasonable. OK, I may have missed his issue (because, at least from the description, the issue has nothing to do with this module but rather with the fact that he can not upload a ".xml" file to his server, something he should've been asking for help with over at vBa) but there is no point in getting that riled up about it.

As the song goes... "But it's all right now, I learned my lesson well. You see, ya can't please everyone, so ya got to please yourself." I *try* to help people when I can but not everybody is always going to be happy.

KW, I runa photography forum, I love that site you have in your sig. is that your site? can I post it in my forums as a source?Except for the vBadvanced link the rest of them are mine. I'd be appreciative of any inbound links. :cool:

wow, did you write all those help links? you are very knowledgeable on photography. awesome. ok sorry, no more clogging up this thread.

[AWMGolfer]

I have it in the actual product to display only a certain amount of characters for the title. However, on the cmps page it always shows the full title which sometimes needs two lines and when it goes to two lines for the title it throws off my module sizing. Is there a way to also have it show only a certain amount of characters in the title for the module? Thanks in advance!!

[kimdk]

Installed!

Workz great :up:

[ahmedipa]

so good

[dt-pain]

Great job. Is there anyway to make this module scroll left to right when more videos are selected?

[Magz]

this works great but the thumbnails of the video are not being shown. any reason why?

Im having this same issue, Videos display fine in the directory pages, but im only getting text on vbadvanced module.

was there a fix for this ?

thanks

[dklassen]

[realdx]

Great addon, working fine except for one thing.. when not logged in, no thumbs are displayed, even if permissions are set properly in the mod config.. is there any other settings I shoud be aware of? thanks for your time and your work!!

[thefarg]

Hi. I copied my style and deleted the old one. It appears that I have all the correct templates but for some reason the videos have stopped displaying. I still get the wrapper (header saying"videos") but no video feed. I have unistalled and then reinstalled this product with no luck. Any ideas?
I notice that its looking for the thumbnail dir on root, not /forum/thumbnail. Any ideas?


In template adv_portal_cmpsvids_bits i replaced the line

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/$video[url]"><img src="$video[thumbnailpath]" alt="$video[title]" title="$video[title]" style="width: 150px;" border="0" /></a></div>

with

<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/$video[url]"><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/$video[thumbnailpath]" alt="$video[title]" title="$video[title]" style="width: 150px;" border="0" /></a></div>

and got it working. Not sure whats changed but that works.

[G0F0RBR0KE]
