YouTube API Integration (lite)
 

Note: Requires PHP 5 to run

This is a youtube integration modification. It integrates the youtube API into your website, allowing you to view, search and browse youtube's library from your site. It also includes a playlist system, allowing you and your users to create both public and private playlists. Private playlists can be edited and viewed only by their owners. Public lists are viewable by all, you can choose which user group can edit the public lists, and which can suggest videos, which are then approved or denied by the moderating group.

What this is not is a video hosting application, it works only off youTube's API, which is read only. You cannot upload video's, rate videos or otherwise post information too youtube.

In addition it creates a custom BBCode "[youtube]videoid[/youtube]" unless it already exists. At bottom of each video there will be the BBCode as with the video id plugged in for users to copy and paste into threads.

Live Demo: http://vbgaming.org/forum/yt.php

It is a "lite" version, but it's missing very little, just the ability for users to suggest videos for public lists without giving them full editing ability on them.

Been waiting for this one for ages, as the last good one has an exploit in it, hopefully this one wont. thanks.

i would like to know the other you were using S7rik3R
does it automatically put videos in each catagory i make
or do i have to do this
it looks very good

The categories are done by YouTube, You can create Playlists which you add videos too manually.

I get this message when trying to import the file in vb

The following dependencies were not met:

1. This product is not compatible with version 4.3.11 of PHP. (Compatible starting with 5)

Yup, even says that in the first post ;)

The xml parsing routines used in it don't exist in older versions of PHP.

i promise you that this is already been posted and the one that posted is alot better

what makes this one diffrent from the main one that was released??

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ok i see the diffrence now

this one got removed from the site cause i guess dude pissed paul off or something idk i didnt feel like reading all the drama

well man since this is like the only one posted on the site now i guess good shit lol

hmm at least vbtube realesed again

If you add a comments system, this would be great

[high]* projectego clicks install :)[/high]

Great work as always! ;)

great addon, works excellent :up:

Installed and working, except the youtube BBcode doesn't seem to have been installed.

Edit: Nevermind.........added my own code

Its nice but i dont have PHP 5 :(

Thanks ... :)

Installed for private testing before releasing to membership... :up:

Question: How do you restrict access to this page, so usergroups lile "guests" can't use it?

I see how the two options work under Usergroups, but now how access is controlled?

Thanks... nice work....

Access isn't really controlled, however if the goal is to stop guests you can do this for now:

On Line 40 is this:
and below it add:
I'll add a "Can view" permission setting to both versions in the next little while.

sorry i dont get one thing :

we should/can add videos manually ?
or
we just set some keywords and it will show all the videos that were using that keywords ?
or
both ?

thanks

You can browse the standard feeds. "Most popular", "most viewed", etc.

You can browse by category.

And you can search, also by category.

You can't upload videos, it pulls everything straight from youtube, so anything that is there that allows embedding should be available to your site. The browsing / searching functions will work pretty much the same as on youtube.com, it uses their search engine.

omg m8, this owns!
Casino and This are my two favorite addons/products!

Questions....

1. If you add the same video twice to a Playlist, does it recognize that and overwrite the previous entry, or do you end up with duplicate entries?

2. I notice when you select a video poster's name, it presents a list of all videos by that YouTube poster. However, when there's more than one page and you select page 2 of the poster's video list, it goes to "Most Recent Videos" page?

Thanks... :)

Badger

Shouldn't, it checks for duplicates based on the video ID. So if it was the same video uploaded twice with different ID's obviously it would go through, but the same ID should only go in once.

I'll have a look into that in the next day or two, I've had a few suggestions I need to implement as well.

first: Great work!!!!
Q:
How can i ad a "No Video fund to search: [Keyword]" Message?
Only a blank site makes my User confused

A: ? :D

Ive installed as per 'read me' but when i navigate to yt.php i get a blank white page. What could the reason for this be?

I'll add one, got a few other additions as well, should be up fairly soon.

Upload the file again, make sure it made it in tact, ensure that the templates are there as well, you should have a new group called "youtube"

There only appears to be two files to upload; yt.php & bitfield_youtubint.xml and also product-youtubint.xml to import. It seems a little incomplete, is everything ok with the download?

3.7?

I'd like to use this mod, but I have php 4.4.4. So much for that.

What can I change in the navbar template link to this so that it will work from the vBa CMPS page as well as the forum home?

For me I had install the vbtube (Lite) version but again that scripts seems to have lots of problems.

Here's the link : https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=168664

When I try to upload the product, vbulletin says:

The following dependencies were not met:

1. This product is not compatible with version 4.3.11 of PHP. (Compatible starting with 5)

Yup, that it does. It uses functions that weren't introduced until php 5. If there is enough interest I could get a version working with php 4, but for now, you need PHP5.

typo in template, fixed now.

I'm in the same boat.....I'd love to use it but the site's not running on PHP 5.....:down::(

I think php 4 is the one that is used the most so far.

how is the problem? Change to a new Hoster with PHP 5 if you want to use it

Change my host for one modification.....yeah.....follow that logic people....
