hello
This plug-in , Can we change the subject instead of insvideo?

[Bob_R]

Up at the top of the instructions there is a link to a plug-in. I'm sorry it's been a long day. Do I need that plugin in addition to adding the code.

Also, how do the videos get inserted into the media? By the poster themselves or me as admin?

Thanks!!

[Mark4865]

Can someone who has this working in 4.1.1 PLEASE tell those asking how to get this mod to work

all help appreciated

I asked the same question above (post #36) and a 2nd one. Waiting for answers.

3rd question. You know how when you embed a code on your site and youtube doesn't allow it to be viewed unless you go to youtube?

Would this not occur anymore since it's being added to a media library?

How does one get rid of the "php" logo to the left of "Latest Videos?"
