Template edits seem easier for me. lol
Why dont people just add a spot in the ACP options for what they want it to read in the navbar.?


But i do have a weird issue going on.. I get "Database Error" emails sent to me from the site..?

This is what the email says..
Is this caused by people trying to upload things incorrectly or is it automatically trying to do something that causes this.?


Thanks

Because phrasing it makes it global, which makes it easier to make translations, which means you already have one place in the ACP where you can change it. Once you learn what that does, it's pretty simple to change any phrase globally on your forum, rather then editing every instance of it in the templates, which then need to be reverted after every upgrade and you'd have to make the change again. Not so with phrases.

The error suggests that an unregistered user, probably a crawl bot, is accessing features it shouldn't have access to. You can try editing the robots.txt file to try and block them from accessing the directory.

:up:This is definitely one of my favorite mods for 3.8.4 Are there any plans to upgrade this to be used with VB4?

That makes a lot of sense.. DJ. (& i'll check out the txt file)

New problem, different board. lol

The first video posted (at the bottom) set up correctly: Info is on the right, description is on the left, but then the next 3 videos added have all the info all mashed together on the right.. When the description should be on the left where the yellow X's are.

Any ideas.?



(disregard the smaller, thicker yellow circle around the "Add Video" button, i was explaining something to someone else. :))

PS. Also it only does the info wrong for other people, not when i add a video. (admin)

Another thing I've noticed is that it looks fine in Google Chrome.!?
How would it only screw up other peoples posts, & not mine if it was a browser thing.!?

Looks to me like maybe invalid HTML somewhere, possible not even related to that section. Something is definitely not closed right on that page. If your not familiar with the Validator, check the link to the article in my signature and scroll down to the section where I take about validation. I'm afraid, this may take you a while to root out.

That could be a great asset to any site eh..!!
I would hope that i could get any/all of my boards to pass. :)


I went here - http://validator.w3.org
And found - 9 Errors, 2 warning(s)

But they dont really say where to find these codes.? (which template or where to look)
or does that check only the front page..?
Do i need to type in the url of each page individually.!? (that will take some time. lol)


Holy Crap.. 56 Errors, 7 warning(s) on Video Page. :eek:

Actually its not as bad as it seems a lot of them are Just used to space. :)

Go to your Admin CP >> vBulletin Options >> vBulletin Options >> General Settings >> Add Template Name in HTML Comments. Tick this to Yes. vB will now put comments in the Source Code where each of your templates begin and end.

Rerun the Validator with the Show Source option selected. This will create links in the error messages that jump down the page to where your Source Code is being displayed, right to the line it detected the error on. Remember that it only detects the error in this vicinity. It could be that something before that is incorrect. You'll need to look around and possibly do some Google searches to understand what each means. Start with the top one first, as errors tend to cascade. Fixing one can fix a bunch below, or reveal others that the Vaildator couldn't previously detect.

You're fortunate, you only have 9 errors. When I started learning about Validation, I had over 600. At the very least, you can say that page is vaild when your done.

That box is already checked "Yes" ?

Should we take this somewhere else, i hate to clutter up this thread.?

Is there a way to get this mod to download the videos and store them locally in case the remote site deletes the video in the future?

How do you create another category? I dowloaded the latest file and I can't find the settings to create another category. Please help.

EDIT:

NEVERMIND! :D

Please help,
1) How do I add video GameTrailers ?
2) Can show how random video CMS Portal (vbadvanced)
Thanks in advance for answers :)

No, this is not any kind of downloader. This just duplicates the sites' embed code in a forum directory.


1. You'd have to make your own hosting XML, which would require some coding knowledge.
2. There are already mods on this site for that. Just do a search for video directory.

Any plans or equvalent of this hack for the new VB 4.0 ?

I've been waiting to find out if they have ANY attempt to make this for vB 4.0??

Please .. just a heads up?

same here, even interested if someone can "$" code and migrate our current 3.8 version into 4.0

I get this error when posting a video
I made the folders writeable....

Also thumbnails are not showing up. http:///www.mediatechies.net/forum/video.php

Hello, I was wondering if with this mod you can add your own videos ? Let's say uploading them to your server for instance. I have a collection of videos I want to make available to my members. If not I would like to create and xml hoster script for my own video page @ http://aniworlds.net/videochannel . I do have it to allow other sites to embed and link my videos but have no idea where to begin to start the xml. Any idea or feedback with this issue wold be greatly appreciated. Thanks again. And may I say my members cold not live without this mod, Im expanding my website to include more a youtube interface but the video directory will still remain as an archive. Please help.

It almost sounds like your missing files. And are you sure you ran the last upgrade, because that fixed the thumbnails for me. Also, make sure you ran the troubleshooting tip. Also, too, and furthermore, your directory is blocked from guest viewing.

Ok we have tried to do this but we have some problems.
This is what i have got:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Are you trying to install this on vB 4?

Does not look like this is going to happen :mad:

Jaxel had marked all his other mods as unsupported, that I saw. I think he just overlooked marking this one.

Yeah i am , is that wrong?

Still having trouble posting comments. Any help please??

It's the cause of your error messages. The old vB3 template system isn't compatible with vB4.

What was your issue?

When I try to enter a comment an error comes up and says "Invalid video specified"

I read that this is related to SEO rewrite rules. You say you've already turned this off?

having same issue and i have vbseo .
any way around this ?

I have not done anything yet. How do you turn off SEO rewrite rules?

I assume it would be in your vBSEO control panel, or where ever rewrites for custom pages is controlled. In other words, it's not something directly related to the modification.

Below are my rewrite rules. If I delete 1 or 2 of them the comments seem to work. But there are still a few problems. I cannot seem to delete the comments. Sometimes it lets me and other times it doesnt. It does seem to be a problem with the rewrite rules. Anyone know how to adjust these rules to be able to post comments and delete them?

By any chance does anyone know how to re-arrange the view video page? For example I want the description section with all the details of the video to appear on top of the video instead of on the bottom. I've looked in the video directory templates but can't seem to pinpoint what I have to change. Any ideas or feedback would be a tremendous help. Thanks alot.

Hi,

For some reason, my video thumbs do not show up, I just see links....

I have made sure the /thumbs was there and everything was chmodded to 777 like it said above,

I also rebuilt the custom avatars bit still no luck, I only see anchor text / links where the thumbs would be,....

Any other ideas what I am doing wrong?

GREAT plugin, :)

That sounds like the thumbs folder might be in the wrong location.

Hi,

Thanks for the response.

What should I check?

I do think I have all the /thumbs in the right place,

Please let me know what to check, everything else works BTW

Thanks so much

Joseph:)

Okay... I have just purchased VB4... so the rewrite work for this mod will begin next month.

Thank you a million times Jaxel. This is by far the best mod ever for vbulletin and my members live by it. We have over 10,000 videos over 25 mins each. Thank you for taking this to the next level. I'm sure everyone here will be looking forward to another awsome chapter in the video directory mod. My members will be thrilled!! Thanks again Jaxel.!
