Major Additions - Media Gallery (Photos, Audio, YouTUBE)

Since 2006 I was serving community members with my Free Mods
But as this site will starts operating by the company,
I'm no willing to support them

** File Removed **


Media Gallery
Photos, Audio, YouTUBE

Compatible with vB4.2.3

I'm offering my hard work for free, without even a single copyright line in footer, expecting that some of you will appreciate the time that I spent for coding it and they will donate something.

Demo: http://www.teriakis.com/vb423/media.php

1.- What's this?

Media Gallery it's a simple Gallery mod supporting Photo and Audio uploads and YouTUBE videos. I was looking for a simple Gallery mod for my own use and as I didn't found something meeting my requirements, I coded this mod. By saying "simple" mostly goes to the easy of use, otherwise it has some great features that you can't even find in big Galleries. It's social share ready especially for Facebook using OpenGraph Meta.

Explore it. You'll love it.

2.- Installation

1. Download the zip file, and unzip it
2. Upload the content of upload/ folder to your forum directory
3. CMOD 777 the directories:
   1. mediagallery/audio
   2. mediagallery/photos
   3. mediagallery/photos/thumbs
4. From your Admincp import product-mediagallery.xml
5. If you're using htaccess file for SEO Urls copy the content of htaccess.txt to your .htaccess file
6. Check and Set Usergroup Permissions
7. Check and Set General Settings
8. Add Categories
9. Moderation is available from ModCP.

PS: For YouTUBE videos the code with tries to fetch the video thumb. Sometimes this action stucks. In this case you can upload your own thumb.

Installed and testing with vB4.2.4 Beta1...everything seems to be working OK, thus far!

If you make a Horizontal forumhome product for this I would not mind donating. I thought you said you initially had something like this created... pretty much the way it shows on the profile, but on the forumhome.

Didn't understood what exactly means "Horizontal forumhome product", but if it's not something important (useful to all members), then it can be done only as custom work with fixed price and not as donation.

Really? A horizontal block of recent videos? Thought that was pretty lamen, but okay. I am SURE this is useful to members, and most ALL video product has this function for a reason.

My donation would have been no different than the custom work price, as I feel this should be available to all members.

Explained?

Hi Cristos, please I'm having a problem with the "I like it" button.

The problem is that if we click on the button no likes are counted.
Before was working without problem, but now not.
Have you some tips?

Thanks in advance.

is there a reason that you use MyISAM and not InnoDB as SQL tables ?

Why to use InnoDB while vBulletin uses MyISAM?

a few things about Media Gallery :
SEO does not work. I have the htaccess.txt in my .htacces and enabled in the settings.
but when i click on a media thumb i went back to my forum.

white page after clicking youtube thumb :

search in your styles for mediagallery_view_media

in this template search for :

<iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="{vb:raw vboptions.mediagallery_youtube_width}" height="{vb:raw vboptions.mediagallery_youtube_height}" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/{vb:raw video}?autoplay=0" frameborder="0"/></iframe>

and change it to :

<iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="{vb:raw vboptions.mediagallery_youtube_width}" height="{vb:raw vboptions.mediagallery_youtube_height}" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/{vb:raw video}?autoplay=0" frameborder="0"/></iframe>

the changes are marked in red
this change solved the problem with the white page.

when i share a media with facebook i get this under the thumb on facebook :

'); var sidebar_align = 'right'; var content_container_margin = parseint('290px'); var sidebar_width = parseint('270px'); //-->

this apears only on sharing with facebook
