Major Additions - Video Gallery - Share Videos! (From Any Website)

Current Version: Beta 3 (Updated October 31st)

NOTE: I will take this hack out of it's BETA stage soon! Please report any features you would like to see, or any bugs that you encounter!

This hack will add a video gallery to your forums accessible at the location: www.yourforumurl.com/forums/videogallery.php

To add a video users must specify a unique videoID code and select a "Video Type" from the list of available options. This hack comes included with "Video Types" for Google Video and YouTube. A "Video Type" consists basically of just the Embedding code for that video sharing site with each instance of the Unique Video ID replaced with the text: $code. When the video is displayed the text $code is replaced with the UniqueID specified by the user who added the video.

You can add new video types to accommodate almost any video sharing website. There are detailed instructions written within the hack to help you through this process.


Features Added in Beta Version 3
Pagination has been made more robust.
Templates have been tweaked for visual appeal.
Comment Writer and Admins can now delete comments.

Features added in Beta Version 2

1) A means to move videos from one category to another.
2) Video Rating System
3) Category Video Listing will display recently added videos + highest rated videos.
4) Video Comments

Please click install, and ask for support!!!! I will give it.

I believe the following options should be included, if the author has the time to do it of course

0. Correct the problem with the video count for each category - it now displays wrong numbers - check www.aekplanet.com/videogallery.php
1. Ability to edit video (the title and description)
2. Link to the user's profile for each video (the username already exists next to each uploaded video, but it is without link)
3. Number of views & comments for each video.
4. A module or code to show latest videos (even if it only means their title, without thumbnail) in VBA!!!!
5. Sub-categories.


Again, thanks for a very nice hack.

I installed everything but don't see how to set up which forum to display the videos or the categories, etc. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I don't see it.
