• In-Topic Support priority is given to Everyone who has installed

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/Introduction
This is the SEO friendly yet Advanced AJAX powered Musicbox by DnP Network?. It is found by Silveryhat in the late 2008 and early 2009. The original version was first use way back in the '06 or '07 with limited functions and no ajax support. A serious upgrade and rebuilding have been made few weeks ago for this release. Main goal was to make it faster and compatible with all vBulletin forums. This project is the hard work of Silveryhat and DnP Administrator of DnP Network?, we wish to bring the best to the vB community.

• Host supports AJAX
• Administrator skill level MUST be intermediate, for you must know what you are doing. 70% of the issues was because Admin does not have a clue of the host configuration and what the notice tries to tell them when a problem occurs. Also the other 20% is because Admin does not read the 2-Step Installation Guide carefully. I will not give support for such situations.
• vBulletin from 3.5.x to 3.8.x

My site rank is not high enough to beat other big sites, so I would narrow down the search to show that google does see the content of Musicbox.
Keyword : Leaving on a jet plane dnp or Honest Graduation Song dnp, as well as Baby I would dnp.
Here is the site search where it displays everything Google has gathered from the Musicbox : allinurl:silveryhat.com/delynie/music.php

First download.....

thnks you

this looks amazing! Tagged!

Thanks. Installed
Cảm ơn bác silveryhat rất nhiều !!!

Actually for once IM GONNA give this a go.

May I make a request?

Could we have a REQUESTS section added in, so members can contact admin/mods to manually add preferred tracks to the genre of their choice.

Ste

let me know when and if you get this going, mate!

Will do, I am gonna wait though, until others have road tested it :lol:

Some of the english phrasing may need tweaking. Seems a shame, members cannot add music files etc.
Im damn sure my music taste aint to everyones liking < "Trance Fanatic"

hahaha! You rock, man!

I have taken the use of the built-in Contact form of vBulletin instead of coding another Request section. Such as shown in this screenshot

However, i'd take note of your idea and if the demand raised there is a chance it would be implemented. At the moment, the Moderating new song feature is being developed at the highest priority because next update is coming shortly.

Also

It depends on your configuration :) . They cannot upload to your server but they can add song/video clip that URL is from another host.

I get some of the things you have done... but as an admin, how do I edit the songs members have posted, or delete them, so that I can set up the sub cats? When I try, I get the "do not have permission...." message. Do I have to com pletely uninstall and reinstall to start over?

Yes, I did this..check_user_location_when_post_edit_song

On further thought I think this is just too hands on for me to use. I have hundreds and hundreds of members who all like music of different kinds and this is just too poorly organized and implimented at this time for me to use it.

THis error pops up every time I try to enter a category.
The categories are all together, not nested like they show on the page, so unless you only have three or four genres and intend to never change them, its very hard to keep track.

The admin either has ALL control or almost no control over input. There is no way to alter or edit what members input. If a member wants to add a new artist they discovered, they have to ask me or the other admin to input all the information, way to time intensive on a forum that is busy.

This would however be good for a forum that is about a specific artist or genre... and of course if the admin has all the time on earth to copy and paste code from one place to another for hours on end.
