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

Now is trying to delete the thread but somewhere messed. I'll also give a look if there is different code in 4.1.x for deleting threads than in 4.2.x. Because for me it works.

Yes, the option of comment to a thread was originally enabled by program default (shouldn't be) before I understood what it was going to do.

Once I discovered it created a thread in my HOME forum (where there's no permission to do so), I permanently deleted that with vBulletin's moderator permanent delete function as I didn't want members to be seeing it, which went fine with no errors.

I hope this hasn't corrupted my SQL database because I don't know have phpMyAdmin and I wouldn't know how to use it anyway ... how do I fix this now?

You said: "or to wait some hours." ... it's already been 24 hours so I'm not sure what I'm waiting for?

Chris...

At this point, should I uninstall the whole mod and then re-install 1.0.3?

Will that fix this issue and not corrupt my SQL database?

Doug

In my site there is still another problem.

In "video_usercp" the first page is correctly displayed.
-> /video_usercp.php?do=myvideos

The following pages remain empty.
-> /video_usercp.php?do=myvideo&page=2
-> /video_usercp.php?do=myvideo&page=3

Perhaps a SEO problem?

Already been 24 hours??? It's just a couple of hours since that post.

In anycase. If you deleted the thread on your own (and not letting the script delete it automatically) this is the error. Never do it with automatic created threads from any mod because you never know what other actions maybe let behind unfinished.

Yes, is better to uninstall and start from scratch. If you find any issue PM phpMyAdmin details to give a look.

I thought you had meant how long had it been since I had added that video with the "No Preview Available" thumbnail, which the mod it had failed to delete, creating an error.

Regardless, I have uninstalled and deleted ALL of this mod's files that were uploaded...

As I said, how do I check that my SQL database hasn't been corrupted? I don't phpMyAdmin installed, so I can't PM you anything. Is there some other way have handling this?

I want your opinion about commenting system. The base of this mod was Media Gallery where I was using a simple Ajax commenting system like Facebook but without replies. Just one level of comments.

In this mod I decided to use Disqus or Threads. Each has pos and cos:

• Discus is Easy on use, well known to most surfers, and even not members can comments. A plus is that is social. Disadvantage is that comments are not host in your server.
• Thread style comments (in my opinion) is a heavy choice. User must redirects to another page just to read and post.

As I have seen in many Video sites (eg YouTUBE), there is no real discussion there. Just post of opinions. That makes use of Threads useless.

So my question is: Do you want to add as 3nd option the old commenting system that I had in Media Gallery?

[BadgerDog]

Ok... here we go again ..

After a complete un-install, I did a complete re-install (777 and everything) using 1.0.3 ...

I then chose a typical YouTube video we'd use for our site...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FZv6NCIRcU&spfr

I clicked import button and it read it in ok with descriptions etc., but as you can see from the attached pics, once again it didn't create a thumbnail.

I never completed the import, so my Video Club install is still in a original (no videos instlled) state...

Chris, what do you want me to do next?

Doug

First of all is impossible to have corrupted the database. The worst that can happen is to let a field there. You'll understand it when you'll try to install again the mod.

PS: I believe that phpMyAdmin (or anything similar) is a must for a webmaster. Many times you'll need it.

Thanks for asking...

My opinion... I'd like a system that is self contained and not on some other organization's server. I'd also prefer something that doesn't use the vBulletin thread system

So, if your old commenting system from Media Gallery was standalone and handled internally by your mod alone, that would be my preference, although I'm sure you have others here who would prefer either of the current two options.

Just my two cents worth ..

Doug
