Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.6.x

Thanks to all who nominated or voted this for MOTM.

Some of you might be looking for Anymedia. Well this has replaced it. It's a total rewrite from the ground up. A huge thanks goes to Sir Adrian for creating the framework. He can't cook soup but he sure can code.

Why the name goldbrck?

From Wikipedia:

Goldbricking, in today's terms, generally refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working.

From Urban Dictionary:

Goldbricking: To loaf or goof around on the job. Supposedly an old union term describing laborers (or more specifically, bricklayers) who were going so slow, it was as if each brick were made of solid gold. One can alse be referred to as a "goldbricker".

Dude, I spent all day at work goldbricking - surfing the web, making long distance phone calls - basically just picking my ass.

Goldbrick uses the following third party Products:

• Highslide Javascript. I've packaged it with the 3.1 download. Please read the license agreement on highlide's website. In short it's free for non-commercial use. http://vikjavev.no/highslide/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

Did you change the media tags? If so I haven't added that back into 3.1 yet. Guess I should say that huh :/

If you changed them put it back to media until the next update. Sorry for the trouble.

I have put anymedia3.0.9.5 back !!

I wait for the next update hope then that the problem has been solved

everything seems to be set the way it should...
can you post the EXACT directives for me to check out?
(the install file that comes with the zip seems to be really OUTDATED)

<!-- AnyMedia BBCode By Crist Chsu Start -->

<!-- AnyMedia BBCode By Crist Chsu End -->

that is showing up on the source code of my site, which means that the forum is not accepting the mod as installed, right?

I un-installed it, and re-installed, now the button is showing up, but I am still un-able to post videos...
I get either the URL with a link or simply:
[MEDIA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7G4c5YZ5RA[/MEDIA]

[b4p]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: str_ireplace() in /home/.../includes/functions_newpost.php(360) : eval()'d code on line 18
and that is the error when posting links to the videos without using the MEDIA tag

Which version did you install? 3.1 or 3.0. If its 3.1 you really don't need the template edits. If you made that post with quick reply refresh the page.

What version of Vb do you have?
