Add-On Releases - AME'fy - Videos on your profile pages

This add on for AME3 will allow you to spruce the hell out of your member profiles by telling AME3 to parse your members custom profile fields for videos.

• You can place videos in 6 different positions in the sidebar
• You can place videos in tabs
• You can have more than one video in spot
• You can randomly select a video to show (by assigning a couple profile fields to a position and choosing the 'random' option)

Note that AMEFY parses pre-set custom profile fields. It requires at urls are stored in a custom profile field. AMEFY will not create the custom field(s) for you. I recommend using a textbox and setting the field to private so it doesnt display the text when people view their profile.

Install: The same as AME really. Upload the contents to forums and import the includes/xml/product-amefy.xml

See first post for configuration examples

Quickstart

1. Install
2. Create one or more Custom Profile Fields to hold the video URL(s).
3. Broswe to your AME CP in your Admin CP. There will be a new option called AMEFY. Click it.
4. Click Add New
5. Enter the settings (pretty self explanatory).
6. Edit your profile and enter one or more links into the custom profile field(s) you created and save.
7. Go behold the beauty of your profile.

Quickfacts

• You can have multiple links in a custom profile field. Just make sure that you make the profile field large enough to house a lot of text (multiple line textboxes are good for this)
• You can display a random video a couple of ways. Either have multiple profile fields assigned to an AMEFY entry or create a multi line textbox and allow users to enter multiple URLs. AMEFY can then randomly select one of those they entered when their profile is viewed.

Attached are a couple quick examples of configurating profile fields to use with AMEFY

Here is an example of how to create and set up a single AMEFY. First shot is a screenie of the custom profile field, the second is of me setting it up in AMEFY.

Here is an example where I have told AMEFY to combined 2 profile fields into the same group. These will display in their own tab.

Here is an example of setting up a large multi line text box and telling AMEFY to randomly select one of the URL(s) found in it.

Out of the box it will parse all of the sites that your vB4 and/or AME3 will. Saying that, just use the Regular Expression setting of the profile field (i.e. enter 'youtube' into the value to only have youtube URLs in there).

Not sure what you mean. You mean it doesn't seem like AMEFY is saving the entry? Can you attache a screenshot of the entry?

Thank you!

Thanks to the douche bag that just voted this 1. Love busting my ass for some numb nut to be so pathetic. Am assuming since there are really no issues posted that it must be another mod author? Hmmm. Gotta love this place some times.

On that note, it is generally a common courtesy to click installed if you installed the modification.

Thanks

I love you


Opps, I love it
