Major Additions - YouTube API Integration (lite)

Note: Requires PHP 5 to run

This is a youtube integration modification. It integrates the youtube API into your website, allowing you to view, search and browse youtube's library from your site. It also includes a playlist system, allowing you and your users to create both public and private playlists. Private playlists can be edited and viewed only by their owners. Public lists are viewable by all, you can choose which user group can edit the public lists, and which can suggest videos, which are then approved or denied by the moderating group.

What this is not is a video hosting application, it works only off youTube's API, which is read only. You cannot upload video's, rate videos or otherwise post information too youtube.

In addition it creates a custom BBCode "[youtube]videoid[/youtube]" unless it already exists. At bottom of each video there will be the BBCode as with the video id plugged in for users to copy and paste into threads.

Live Demo: http://vbgaming.org/forum/yt.php

It is a "lite" version, but it's missing very little, just the ability for users to suggest videos for public lists without giving them full editing ability on them.

Anywhere where i can pay to get this to work with 4.4.7 PHP? I REALLY REALLY REALLY like this (I had another version on my Dolphin site and my members loved it). I was thrilled to have found this with vbulletn but I don't have php 5. Will pay ..

I'll probably redo the DOM functions later on, kinda busy right now though so nothing is going to happen for a week or two.

How can I have the initial 'yt.php' page - when you load it using www.mysite/forum/yt.php - display a custom default search criteria? So if I want to have the topic of "radio" be the first search criteria that is displayed from the 'yt.php' displayed video listings - how can I make that happen? Which file needs editing and what code is required?

Hope that is clear!

Thanks - a great addon, kudos.

You need to install PHP5 on your server. If your on a hosting account, contact the support.

it would be really great if you update your Mod...

I'll dig into it when I get a chance, things are rather hectic at the moment.

Same problem with me, I am using vBulletin 3.6.8 Patch Level 2 with PHP 5.2.5, still getting white blank page, my forum is located at www.mysite.com/forum and I am trying to run the yt.php with the following link www.mysite.com/forum/yt.php I am getting HTTP 500 error.

Any one have any idea what could be wrong.
