BB Code Enhancements - Innovative Small MP3 Player BB Code

Innovative Small mp3 Player BB Code

By:

This BB Code will allow users to have a small mp3 player in:

• Posts in the forums
• Signatures i.e. Song of the day/week etc.
• anywhere you can use BB Code Tags

I found this while browsing: http://www.phpbb3bbcodes.com as I have some phpBB boards of my own and was tinkering as usual . It was rather simple to add as a BB Code to VBulletin and did not take much time to make it work in vB via the {param} tags etc!

Credit for the Code goes to phpbb3codes.com and the creator of the .swf player i.e. djgalix!

Time to install: 1-2 mins

Instructions:

• Download the .zip and extract the SWF player
• Upload the player_mp3.swf into your forum root folder
• Add new BB code:

AdminCP --> Custom BB Codes --> Add New BB Code

Title: mp3
Tag: mp3
Replacement:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        data="player_mp3.swf?mp3={param}" width="200" height="20" />
  <param name="movie" value="player_mp3.swf?mp3={param}" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
</object>

Use {option} = NO

*The Player .swf file HAS to be in your forums ROOT folder, this will make it NOT visible in AdminCP as that is another folder i.e. admincp folder BUT it will display FINE in the forums via FireFox and Internet Explorer! (Thanks for the catching that bug where it did not display joh!)

Now use the tags [mp3]Full Song URL Here![/mp3]

*Experienced Users can take the code replacement and hard code into forums where desired!

For some who cannot get the mod to work etc, it is usally the AME mod, a Mod Security enabled on your server per your host OR something in your .htaccess file.

If you have an htaccess file add this to it:

RewriteEngine On 
# Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www\.)?yoururl.com/.*$ [NC]

Replace the yoururl with your url, note I left the .com so if you are .net or .org change that, also leave the www as-is unless you have something setup like forums.yoursite.com etc etc.

Hope that helps some, and remember to always PM me if I do not reply promptly to your posts.

AME installed = This will not play, at least that's what EVERYONE with the AME mod has told me in regards to this mod working and it won't but personally I would keep AME hands down vs just a MP3 player HOWEVER check the post above... ok wait here's the link, try this mp3 player and see if it will work with the AME mod, I use this one too and love it especially the volume control and description! https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=170794

Hey, this is awesome, thank you!

Is there a way to make it only work in one forum and sigs though?

Sure

You can WRAP the code with...

<if condition="$forum[forumid] == #">
Replacement Code here!
</if>

Example:

<if condition="$forum[forumid] == #">
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        data="player_mp3.swf?mp3={param}" width="200" height="20" />
  <param name="movie" value="player_mp3.swf?mp3={param}" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
</object>
</if>

Where # is replaced by the forum ID you wish to display it in

And sigs... did you mean... Show this ONLY in signatures AND in a certain forum OR each different? - Let me know and I'll point you in the right direction with that too .

[raporia]

im a plonker it was me doing it all wrong lol anyways serious request for you how do i create a button so that when you go to make a post you click the button it inserts the code into the post for you then you just add the url of the track into the middle of it? just some of my members aint used to vb so this would make it 10x easier

Your welcome

[ShawneyJ]

this is orsm, but plainly does not work, i uploaded a mp3 to my server, just comes up blank.
and yes uploaded everything perfect, checked over it then.

[ShawneyJ]

No, unfortuantely there is not... I won't be silly and say use the volume control on your speakers ROFL but instead try this mod...
