Profile Enhancements - Mp3 Player For User Profiles

I say that there was a demand for and mp3 player mod here on vbulletin.org. I used one from

http://www.myflashfetish.com/

You will need to sign up its free!!

Create a new profile field single-lline text box.

Make it editable by users and private, non-searchable. Save and then
Import the product and open the template:

memberinfo_block_music

and find:

PHP Code:

$userinfo[field15] 


And change to what ever yours is.
next tell your users to fill out there prefs to there mp3 player. Next tell them to copy the embed code. From there you will need to tell them to look for:

PHP Code:

<param name="flashvars" value="[color="red"][b]myid=16092906&path=2008/12/12&mycolor=222222&mycolor2=77ADD1&mycolor3=FFFFFF&autoplay=true&rand=0&f=4&vol=100&pat=10&grad=true[/b][/color]"/></object> 


They will need to copy the entire code inside the value="" I`ll highlight it in red fo you to see it.

Next open the template MEMBERINFO

next go to the bottom of that and look for

PHP Code:

$blocks[stats_mini]
$template_hook[profile_right_mini]
$blocks[friends_mini]
$blocks[albums]
$template_hook[profile_right_album]
$blocks[groups]
$blocks[visitors] 


Add in there $blocks[music] on a separate line so it looks like this:

PHP Code:

$blocks[mini]
$blocks[music] 


and save the template. Next follow the directions below to finish the install.

Tell them to add that entire code to there profile field and save it. This will add the mp3 player to there profile.


UPDATED:

Problem fixed!

you must do a fresh install of the product if you`ve already done it if not follow these instructions as well

Create another single text line user profile field and name it MP3 swf type.

Description: to show the version of mp3 player your using.

The rest is the same as above.

in template: memberinfo_block_music

Find:

PHP Code:

$userinfo[field16] 


Change 16 to the number of your profile field and save.

PHP Code:

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://assets.myflashfetish.com/swf/mp3/[color="red"][b]mixpod.swf[/b][/color]" 


you must switch the mixpod.swf to what ever .swf version that is used.


The mp3 player features the ability to upload your own songs to be played on you profile.

PS...this will play a playlist right? Like at MySpace?

Also I noticed at MyFlashFetish.com they have video playlist as well. You think you could do one of these for videos?

And there is another mp3 player mod...but it's for posts. That's how I did all these: http://www.dawnswebdesigns.com/forum...isplay.php?f=8. But I did want something for people's profiles too. Thanks.

Thank you for adding the demo...I forgot to mention that. You have a very cool site by the way.

I can't get this to work. The only thing I could think of was I couldn't add anymore then this: myid=16092906&path=2008/12/12&mycolor=222222&mycolor2=77ADD1&mycolor3=FFFFFF& autoplay=true&rand=0&f to that profile field. So I edited the field to make the box bigger & allow more info to be put in but it didn't help.

I also uninstalled & reinstalled. I created 2 spaces...one for the ID info & one for the player info. the 2 15's I switched to the right # & the 2 16's I switched to the right #. It still don't work.

I don't think you necessarily do. This links to a playlist at http://www.myflashfetish.com. Although I do see they allow you to upload mp3's there.

There's another template edit you need to make (seems he may have forgotten it in the installation instructions).

Edit: Styles & Templates >> Member Info Templates >> MEMBERINFO

Look for...

$blocks[stats_mini]
$template_hook[profile_right_mini]
$blocks[friends_mini]
$blocks[albums]
$template_hook[profile_right_album]
$blocks[groups]
$blocks[visitors]

Put $blocks[music] anywhere in there.
For example:

$blocks[stats_mini]
$template_hook[profile_right_mini]
$blocks[friends_mini]
$blocks[music]
$blocks[albums]
$template_hook[profile_right_album]
$blocks[groups]
$blocks[visitors]

It should now show up.

That did it. Thank you very much. What could I edit to get the player a lil more centered within the block?
