Description:

This is unlike my past video mod which used bbcode, this one is more simple and works much better for the user too. What it does it parses the url when the post is viewed, so it will work with past links and new links.

Where do you put that in the code? I'm still having problems with it even after the update.

The post looks like this from the embedded youtube video

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="<A href="http://www.youtube.com/v/11ESZksyeUg&rel=1"></param><param">http://www.youtube.com/v/11ESZksyeUg&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/11ESZksyeUg&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

I receive the following error when viewing usernotes..

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /includes/class_postbit.php(296) : eval()'d code on line 8

The error goes away once I disable this mod. Not sure what to do about it.

ok, not sure what page the usernotes is on. but you can go into the Global Array plugin and read the first line and you will understand why that error is appearing. You need to add that page to the in_array function

Great hack!

Question for you.

Is there a way for this hack to work on the calendar. When someone post an event they add a video?

Only other mod installed is VBArcade, and that was installed after the passiveVid mod, which i havn`t been able to get working at all (even before VBArcade)

Thx for the response though Coders, would like to get this working

I don't know how I missed that when I was trying to fix it, but I did. Right there in front of my face.

Excellent work!
