Fixed now...lol I forgot to add the template to the main style I use.:rolleyes:

Thanks for pointing that out.:)

custom page installed , management showing in admin cp
but I cant approve any mp3 files ?
I have changed the settings in usergroup to allow
admins to upload and approve mp3 files...

when I click "approve mp3" it boes back to no , any ideas syrus ?

my custom page is here for your reference

Did you follow the instructions correctly when installing? That problem normally occurs when the settings have not been saved directly after installing the product.xml file.

Thought I had buddy I will try it again...:(

still cant get it working, haven't got a clue where I am going wrong
on this one - got plenty of mods installed previously with no trouble..

has anyone got a link to an mp3 I can use to test my set up ?
maybe I am doing that bit wrong ?

I have an mp3 file showing as approved (1) rather than (0)
but nothing showing on the player itself ??

getting somewhere slowly....

UPDATE

Bingo we have lift off, thanks Syrus....

Wont save mps edit via admincp, any ideas?

Normally, a re-import (overwrite) of the product.xml file will fix any issues, if you've not installed it exactly as outlined in the instructions. You don't lose any mp3's already entered since these are taken into consideration by the install/upgrade.

hmmm, nice hack!
but why the mp3 upload to a folder is missing?

like images users should be able to upload their songs
to the boards webspace.

same problem as es-league.com above... i reimported overwrote and saved the settings and still nothing, running 3.6.5

I have the player successfully installed, I have uploaded mp3's and titled them per your instruction and made sure all folders are CHMOD correctly.

The player does not show the mp3's - only the phrase "undefined". what am I doing wrong?

Also, are you supposed to be able to turn the player on and off via the "power" button?

really looking forward to using this. thanks for all your hard work Syrus

The 'undefined' statement means the player file is not reading the main mp3playlist.php file in the root of your forum. Check the CHMOD on this file is set to 644.

The 'power' button serves no purpose on this version, it is just for cosmetic purposes only.

See how you get on...

I can't understand why you are having problems, however you could try the following:

Using phpMyAdmin do a SQL dump of all your playlists, double check its all there, before you do an uninstall of the modification. Go back to your database and if the settings table is still there then drop the this table.

Once you've done this, re-install the modification - and import the product XML file, make sure you click Save settings directly after. Now, go back to phpMyAdmin and drop the playlist tables again, and import your backed up SQL playlist tables.

If that didn't work, try doing a product XML overwrite - and Save settings directly after.

See if that helps.

There are a few reasons why there is no function to upload mp3's.

1. Legality issues - but these vary on country to country. So, the linking method was used instead.

2. Another reason is PHP upload restriction limits, normally these are set to around 2Mb or 4Mb (host dependent). In some cases this can be changed using a php.ini or .htaccess file edit, but not all hosting companies allow their clients to do this, with their server setups.

These are the main reasons why the linking approach was preferred, over uploading of mp3's which would also cause strain on some servers, with high-traffic.

i understand!

but i have a familar forum with less than 50 users.
legality and traffic is no problem for us.
u can share song between a family.

do you have a add on for my forum to upload mp3?
would be very nice :)

greetings,
nebu

ps: your player is great.
im using it everytime in the background!

Well, I have the undefined problem, plus I am not able to change an URL or a song name once it is in a playlist...
What am I doing wrong ?
(I verified the chmod for mp3playlist.php and made sure that admin can add and play mp3)

It worked for one song : I don't seem tio be able to reproduce my success ! I have a white square where the second song name should be...
and of course I cannot edit an url to a mp3 or change a name...
:(

i have the same problem :(

I m sorry as my question may have been asked a 100 times b4, but How actually do I "upload" Mp3s to get their URLs ?

The player and everything else has been installed, and I tried to upload 1 mp3 to new folder names MP3 under my forum root folder. Under Url I listed as "mp3/1.mp3", and the track 1 appears on play list, but it does not play it ?

Any ideas.?????

you cant upload with this tool
its only a player!
you have to upload first, after you only add the url :)

yeah I understand that. I mentioned that I uploaded the mp3 to my folder (using Ftp). Any suggestions ?

got it working :D

Same thing here. Ive removed the db tables and re uploaded the xml then saved settings. Still cant approve via admincp. Having to do it via phpmyadmin.

Do you have your settings set to Approve all Mp3's? This should be set to on directly after installation of the product.xml file. You should be able to edit each track from any playlist and set it to approve.

Warning!!! To view this Mp3 Player please enable JavaScript and Flash!

i get this when i run it and my java is enable

nvm i got it but now the music wont play

Do the the playlists show up in the player? Or are you receiving a message of 'null' or 'undefined'?

I've installed this hack without issues, but every time I approve a song, it just goes right back to being unapproved. Ie the approval doesn't 'stick'. Any ideas? :(

Try logging out of your site and clearing cookies, this sometimes causes errors with this mod.

I have the same problem, the playlist show up in the player but it wont start the music. I checked to make sure the settings are correct and noticed that it wont update the playlist and shows always Not aproved. I did try few times to refresh the FTP server and still have the same problems.

Any Ideas

Hope that this time you will see my question :)

Have you tried everything I posted here?

Also, try logging out and clearing your cookies.

Actually I did. I did not bother saving any tables as I had issues right away. I dropped the tables with phpmyadmin, reinstall the whole thing (xml), took care about the "right away" settings saving, checked the chmod, checked the rights, made sure it did not request for approval, cleared my cache, even stopped the cache (thanks to my devbar) same results. As far as I know, except for throwing salt above my shoulders or praying all night long I tried everything.

I can delete a song. I can add a song. I cannot edit a song in a playlist (name or url)

Can you PM me a temp admin account to your website? I'll have a quick look for you.:)

Merci beaucoup, a PM was sent.

Had no effect. Still won't approve tracks. And when I say I cleared cookies, I definitely did... Even reformatted computer and reinstalled XP... (Coincidental but still.):confused:

Nonetheless I got it working by disabling admin approval. I can just switch it back on when I am not adding mp3s into the playlists.

However a new issue has raised its ugly head... A while after a track has stopped playing, a window pops up saying that a script running in the Adobe Flash 9 movie is making Adobe Flash 9 run slow, and may cause the computer to become unstable, asking me if I want to terminate the script. Choosing yes closes the mp3 player, choosing no leaves it be but the computer runs very slow. :(

Cant get this to play any songs. Check it out.

When I upload a URL which otherwise would prompt you to download the file, it shows up but will not play (this is the path from my FTP).

When I put in the HTTP path it doesn't even show up.

??????????

folder is already chmod 644. any other ideas?

Okay let me better rephrase the question as the mod isnt working correctly for me. Heres what Ive tried.

Installed the mod no problems. When I add a mp3 file as streaming, and admin has to approve the mp3 file first. Im not able to approve it so that its added to the list. When I click approve and save it still shows "0" and wont change that setting. Thus wont add to the playlist.

So then I try again with another file. But if I add the mp3 files with streaming as false then it adds to the player with approval set to no. It then shows in the player but wont actually play ( and yes its linking to the correct mp3 file ).

is there a module for 3.5X?
