Major Additions - Video Club (YouTUBE, Vimeo, DailyMotion etc)

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 **


Video Club
Fetch Videos from many Providers with URL
since ver. 1.2.0 you can also embed any valid video code

Things to know !!!

• If your site is SSL and you try to show a video from a non SSL site, video should not works.
• If you can't show YouTUBE videos, most probably your API key is wrong. Be sure that you've setup correct the API key and it is ver. 3. Here is a good tutorial.
• If you see strange characters in the text, the problem is character encoding. Even in English, if you're using iso-8859-1 but the video provider uses UTF-8 should have some problems. But you can edit the text, so not so important issue.

Demo Installation
demouser1 / demopass1
demouser2 / demopass2
demouser3 / demopass3
PS: In my demo I've setup Disqus as commenting system. But it's up to you to setup Threads instead.

1.- What's this?

Video Club is a Video Gallery mod for your community. It's easy to use and has a nice interface. User just needs to enter a link to the video and set a category. All others done automatically. For comments supports Thread per video but also the well known Disqus external commenting system. I strongly recommend you to use Disqus as it's very social and soon you'll see an increment amount of pageviews.

2.- Video Providers (Websites)

• 5min.com
• Blip.tv
• Break.com
• Collegehumor.com
• Dailymotion.com
• Funnyordie.com
• Gametrailers.com
• Hulu.com
• Justin.tv
• Metacafe.com
• MySpace.com
• Ustream.tv
• Veoh.com
• Vimeo.com
• Screen.Yahoo.com
• YouTUBE.com
• ver. 1.2.0 NEW!! Now you can add manual any video code your want

3.- Comments

Not only one but 3 types for comments (plus an option to not use comments)

• Thread
• Disqus
• Ajax comments

4. Installation

1. Upload all files from upload folder to the folder where your vBulletin 4.2 is installed
2. CMOD 777 the directories
   1. videoclub/thumbs
   2. videoclub/thumbs/tmp
3. Login to your admincp and import the file product-videoclub.xml
4. Set Usergroup permissions
5. Set General Options according to your needs
   1. ** MOST IMPORTANT SETTINGS **
   2. Get a YouTUBE API key from https://console.developers.google.co...is/credentials
   3. Decide if you'll use Threads for comments or Disqus. If you'll use Disqus set your site at: https://disqus.com/admin/create/
   4. Set Server Path to Uploads !!!
6. If you want modify PM templates but don't touch anything between {}
7. Set the Categories

5.- PRO Version

After many years I decided to use PRO version not as a way not to earn money (I don't expect to have more than 10 sales), but rather to find a way to pay for some commercial scripts that I want to use in the PRO version (Distribution License). The follow features will be in the PRO version:

• Extra Providers
  • Facebook
  • LiveLeak.com
  • OpenLoadMovies.com
• Videoplayer with support for prevideo ads
• Better carousel for latest videos at top
• Video search in multiple providers
• Many notifications
• Brand free

Ηι Christos, whatever I tried, I could not make this to work for me.
Always stuck at last part, when save video always get


Forbidden (error 403)
You don't have permission to access /video_usercp.phpon this server.


I checked every thing, all is as supposed to be.


Do you think that might be something from my server?, that does not let me to have access? If I be sure for this I than can speak with server support..

Hi Strati,

I've 2 active demo installations and another 13 here (vB4+vB3). Nobody reported something similar. If I understood well the mod fetches the data correct (you can see them in the form) and when you click "Save", you're getting that error. Am I right?

At that point, 2 issues can be possible:

1. Your path to thumbs is wrong at: Videoclub-> General Options-> Server Path to Thumbs (no ending slash).
2. The php function "copy" does not works: copy(''.$videothumb.'', ''.$vbulletin->options["videoclub_serverpath"].'/tmp/'.$logo.'');

As a second thought. That "Forbidden" indicates server error. Can you please check if the file video_usercp.php is CMOD 644 ? If it is (which is the normal), try to change it to 666. Just for testing purposes. If it works then bring it back to 644 and contact your hosting provider.

If it's not 644, then change it to 644

Christos this is the problem,

ModSecurity: Access denied with code 403 (phase 2). Pattern match "\\\\biframe\\\\b.*?\\\\bsrc\\\\b" at MATCHED_VAR. [file "/etc/httpd/conf/modsecurity.d/rules/comodo/07_XSS_XSS.conf"] [line "198"] [id "212650"] [rev "3"] [msg "COMODO WAF: Cross-site Scripting (XSS) Attack||www.xxxxxxxxx.com|F|2"] [data "Matched Data: http:/ found within REQUEST_COOKIES_NAMES:bb_cpsession: <iframe width=\\x22750\\x22 height=\\x22400\\x22 src=\\x22//www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/xxxxxxxxxx?showinfo=0&rel=0&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1\\x22 frameborder=\\x220\\x22 allowfullscreen></iframe>"] [severity "CRITICAL"] [hostname "www.xxxxxxxxx.com"] [uri "/video_usercp.php"] [unique_id "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"]

I put the id to my server as security rule and now it works. I do not know if it is ok.
I do not know if the id will change and have problem again, COMODO Firewall sees something that does not like

Thank you for advises

It was not 644? Strange. Normal is 644 for all files. Once, some years ago, I had a similar problem. Don't remember if it was 600 or 640 but it was not 644 so I had problems with many files. That's why it came to my mind when I read that "Forbitten".

I think that you must contact your hosting provider to get advices.

I used your API it was still same issue

I have uploaded the file to videoclub/includes/ but still showing Preview not Available.

I really which it can show the preview, because without Thumbnail preview it won't make sense.

Please Note that when adding the video the Thumbnail show but after adding the video no Thumbnail.

Please i need more troubleshooting to fix this problem.

2. I dont no how to go about this ............. The php function "copy" does not works: copy(''.$videothumb.'', ''.$vbulletin->options["videoclub_serverpath"].'/tmp/'.$logo.'');
