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!

Demo

Enjoy!

Can it be that mine is not working cuz I have 'passiveVid' installed
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ght=passiveVid

Or Iam doing something wrong!?

Mp3 is just not displayed, just flickers and shows nothing, in bb code list player is there
In BB Code Manager player is not displayed if I use this code you gave us, but using
'soundbarrierpro' (post 3 here) it shows up in bb custom menager

But any of these two replacement cdes just dont work for me
Vb 3.7.4

Any Ideas ?
Thanks

I have a heavily modified 3.7.3 board and this mod installed correctly works perfectly.

Thanks!

Even though I'm not a programmer (last language I was proficient at was FORTRAN IV in the 70's) and very new to vBulletin, it worked for me.

THANK YOU very much.

Was wondering why this simple code didnt work out for me, the thing is that linked external mp3 cuz I was thinking ..... but this mod only supports internal mp3 files
Does anyone know how to modify this code for external, or is there any othe mode for mp3 similar to this one ? (for external linx of course)

Thanks a lot for any pointers

Ok, so you read the part about hard coding into your site and you do not want to use it as a bb code or?

Here's the breakdown...

It up as a simple bb code now per the instructions above. You can use this yourself after entering in the custom bb code via admincp by placing the songs url location INCLUDING the .mp3 extension in between the [mp3]http://www.thesitesnamethesongison.com/songname.mp3[/mp3] and it will play!

IF you want to hard code it you have to take the code back to it's roots i.e. remove the {param} and place the url of the song there, example:

BB Code 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>

For use if hard-coding into forums/templates etc:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
        data="player_mp3.swf?mp3=http://www.thesitesnamethesongison.com/songname.mp3" width="200" height="20" />
  <param name="movie" value="player_mp3.swf?mp3=http://www.thesitesnamethesongison.com/songname.mp3" />
  <param name="wmode" value="transparent">
</object>

Also, remember to upload the player swf file to your forum root and you should be done

If you were actually trying it as a bb code then delete what you have and read the above carefully and try again, it will work .
