Thanks. For the interim I am working on a simple solution.
The actual videos have been placed in posts on a hidden sub forum where only premium members have viewing rights. From there I copy the link for an individual post (#1).
My Premium Video forum is set to allow all members to view posts and that is where I have put my description of the video with an image of the video to click on. I then add the link, to that hidden video, to that image.
This allows everyone to read the description and when a premium member clicks on the image, a new window (or tab) opens showing the one post containing the video and a description. One more click on the video and it starts. When the member is finished, they just close the window.
Non-premium members who click on the image are shown an error message inviting them to buy a subscription.
I know this is all a bit clumsy, but it is the best I could do under the current circumstances until you guys can think of a better way.
If any of the coders here want to see what I have done in action, pm me and I will provide you with a dummy account on my forum.
Regards
Peter
