?-Custom BBCode - Grooveshark

I would like to add a custom bbcode so I can allow members to add a Grooveshark.com widget playlist or single song widget into their posts.

The Grooveshark website allows users to make playlists or just a single song to share with others.
It has an option for a widget and provides the code as such.

This code is for the "playlist" (playlist widget).

Code:

<object width="250" height="250"><param name="movie" value="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" /><param name="wmode" value="window" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="flashvars" value="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&playlistID=43104863&bbg=000000&bth=000000&pfg=000000&lfg=000000&bt=FFFFFF&pbg=FFFFFF&pfgh=FFFFFF&si=FFFFFF&lbg=FFFFFF&lfgh=FFFFFF&sb=FFFFFF&bfg=666666&pbgh=666666&lbgh=666666&sbh=666666&p=0" /><embed src="http://grooveshark.com/widget.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="250" height="250" flashvars="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&playlistID=43104863&bbg=000000&bth=000000&pfg=000000&lfg=000000&bt=FFFFFF&pbg=FFFFFF&pfgh=FFFFFF&si=FFFFFF&lbg=FFFFFF&lfgh=FFFFFF&sb=FFFFFF&bfg=666666&pbgh=666666&lbgh=666666&sbh=666666&p=0" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="window" /></object>

On a different website (different CMS) I was able to do this with a custom bbcode, and it looked like this.

Code:

<object width="{NUMBER1}" height="{NUMBER2}"> <param name="movie" value="http://listen.grooveshark.com/widget.swf" /> <param name="wmode" value="window" /> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /> <param name="flashvars" value="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&widgetID={IDENTIFIER}&style={SIMPLETEXT1}&bbg={SIMPLETEXT2}&bfg={SIMPLETEXT4}&bt={SIMPLETEXT3}&bth={SIMPLETEXT2}&pbg={SIMPLETEXT3}&pbgh={SIMPLETEXT4}&pfg={SIMPLETEXT2}&pfgh={SIMPLETEXT3}&si={SIMPLETEXT3}&lbg={SIMPLETEXT3}&lbgh={SIMPLETEXT4}&lfg={SIMPLETEXT2}&lfgh={SIMPLETEXT3}&sb={SIMPLETEXT3}&sbh={SIMPLETEXT4}&p=0" /> <embed src="http://listen.grooveshark.com/widget.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="{NUMBER1}" height="{NUMBER2}" flashvars="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&widgetID={IDENTIFIER}&style={SIMPLETEXT1}&bbg={SIMPLETEXT2}&bfg={SIMPLETEXT4}&bt={SIMPLETEXT3}&bth={SIMPLETEXT2}&pbg={SIMPLETEXT3}&pbgh={SIMPLETEXT4}&pfg={SIMPLETEXT2}&pfgh={SIMPLETEXT3}&si={SIMPLETEXT3}&lbg={SIMPLETEXT3}&lbgh={SIMPLETEXT4}&lfg={SIMPLETEXT2}&lfgh={SIMPLETEXT3}&sb={SIMPLETEXT3}&sbh={SIMPLETEXT4}&p=0" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="window" /></object>

And this code is for the "single" (single song widget).

Code:

<object width="250" height="40"><param name="movie" value="http://grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf" /><param name="wmode" value="window" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="flashvars" value="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&songIDs=28185324&style=metal&p=0" /><embed src="http://grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="250" height="40" flashvars="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&songIDs=28185324&style=metal&p=0" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="window" /></object>

and for the single song custom bbcode looked like this.

Code:

<object width="{NUMBER1}" height="{NUMBER2}"> <param name="movie" value="http://listen.grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf" /> <param name="wmode" value="window" /> <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /> <param name="flashvars" value="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&widgetID={IDENTIFIER}&style={SIMPLETEXT}&p=0" /> <embed src="http://listen.grooveshark.com/songWidget.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="{NUMBER1}" height="{NUMBER2}" flashvars="hostname=cowbell.grooveshark.com&widgetID={IDENTIFIER}&style={SIMPLETEXT}&p=0" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="window" /></object>

But with VB I only see 2 options "param" & "option".

Anyone have an idea how to accomplish or if it is even possible in VB? Thanks.

yes, it is possible - not sure if you can use the bb-code manager for it though.

I'm currently writing a bbcode with multiple options via the plugin system right now.
(it's a gallery code ;) )

hook: bbcode_create

Code:

if (!function_exists('handle_bbcode_gallery'))

{

    function handle_bbcode_gallery(&$parser, $code, $option='')

    { 

.... do stuff....

option could be something like [gallery="a=...;b=....;c=....;"]some bla[/gallery]

so $option would be a string "a=...;b=...;c=...;" which you can manipulate via php to split it up in the 3 options a,b,c and in the $code variable you have the string "some bla"

.... end do php stuff...

return $output_string;



    }

}



$this->tag_list['option']['gallery'] = array(

        'callback' => 'handle_external',

        'strip_empty' => true,

        'stop_parse' => false,

        'disable_smilies' => true,

        'disable_wordwrap' => true,

        'strip_space_after' => 1,

        'external_callback' => 'handle_bbcode_gallery'

);

Thanks for the idea, I was hoping there would be an better/easier solution, kinda like how I was able to do it with the different CMS.

This video was useless.

Making the widgets into bbcodes is easy enough but I don't think you can add parameters for changing the colour/dimensions etc - your best bet would be to ask BBCode Guru - BirdOPrey5

Using the widget maker from Grooveshark you can set the dimensions and colour to suit yourself and then just add the {param} after playlistID=

You can make a Playlist BBcode

You might already know all this though :)

Thanks Gemma, my only fear was that users are stupid and won't understand even with directions, but it will work for now. Thanks again.

I can not run the bbcode php come from, where I used normally, and
[groove] [/ groove]
that
[groovepl] [/ groovepl]

Can you help me get it to work even on vbulletin?
thanks
