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.

Templates have been tweaked for visual appeal.

**Bug I have come across**

When i go to move a video from one cat to another i cant because there are no cats in the drop down box.

**Suggestion **

I know this is still beta but i will still ask and hope

• Instead of having just a text link to a catagory it would be great to ba able to add an icon or small picture as well
• Have the rating "out of 10" instead of just "out of 5" As this mod will be big there could be a lot of videos to rate so a bigger rating scale would be great.
  • Abilty to have small icon like a star for rating instead of just a number would be nice

These are just my suggestions THE MOD is/will be great with or without them

Regards Madotds

Sorry to bump but am i the only person to have the issue with being unable to move videos from one cat to another?
