Goldbrick Media system for vBulletin 3.6.x

Thanks to all who nominated or voted this for MOTM.

Some of you might be looking for Anymedia. Well this has replaced it. It's a total rewrite from the ground up. A huge thanks goes to Sir Adrian for creating the framework. He can't cook soup but he sure can code.

Why the name goldbrck?

From Wikipedia:

Goldbricking, in today's terms, generally refers to staff who use their work internet access for personal reasons while maintaining the appearance of working.

From Urban Dictionary:

Goldbricking: To loaf or goof around on the job. Supposedly an old union term describing laborers (or more specifically, bricklayers) who were going so slow, it was as if each brick were made of solid gold. One can alse be referred to as a "goldbricker".

Dude, I spent all day at work goldbricking - surfing the web, making long distance phone calls - basically just picking my ass.

Goldbrick uses the following third party Products:

• Highslide Javascript. I've packaged it with the 3.1 download. Please read the license agreement on highlide's website. In short it's free for non-commercial use. http://vikjavev.no/highslide/
• - - -
• The media player and mp3 player are from http://www.jeroenwijering.com/

Yes the uploads folder. You don't upload the upload folder but the contents inside of it. But if you did them one at a time thats okay also. As long as they get uploaded in the right spot.

Thanks killer hack!

Ya. I'm going to use that one latter. Thought I took it out of the one I uploaded.

Download Goldbrick. Not anymedia. But if your post was a quick reply refresh the page. If it wasn't you need js enabled.

Javascript. Did you copy that down wrong? You have two different paths there.

Hey Nix. First off I would just like to say that I love this mod. Great job

I don't mean to be a pest but, the new upgrade to goldbrick has had a strange affect on the fonts in my reply templates.

It didn't affect the new thread templates. You can see the difference here:

http://img165.imageshack.us/img165/8621/bigfontnz9.jpg

I would like them to return to normal and looking like the first image. Any idea why this might have happened?

I realize you probably have many more important issues to address but I would appreciate it if you took a look.

What link are you using? I don't have IE so I can't test it. You have javascript enabled. Or you wouldn't see that pop up.

You don't do it like that. If you do it that way you would have to change the default name. Just hit the select box and choose the file.
