Would any of you gentlemen with such immense knowledge (just stating the facts!) be interested in writing something for a Vimeo Mod?
Lucapan did an AWESOME and yet simple YouTube mod here. I would think a Vimeo Mod could be just as short and simple.
My most favorite artists use Vimeo (here: http://vimeo.com/user2129614) and I can think of nothing more exciting, at the moment, than to have these videos play on my forums.
Does anyone have time for this?

Leather Lips said that mod didn't work right with today's browsers, Carefree. He also said if anyone would care to work on that mod and modernize it to feel free to do so.

As far as I know, Vimeo plays just fine on oxle.com, since early 2009.
Just tested it for you, and yes: http://oxle.com/reply/49960.html
I do notice that the simple URLs no longer work, so they must have changed the logic behind it. Well.
All info on how to use it is there, however without a readme. Read through the topic and through the functions.
It's all about the [video][/video] tags.

I really appreciate this, Marcel! I am looking at your inc_func_common.asp right now. Due to the fact that I have the YouTube mod I mentioned above installed on my forum, do you think it might cause any problems?
I like to make things as simple as possible for my members and the YouTube mod included a YouTube button. Could you possibly write the code for a button that would insert the [video][/video] codes? I can create my own button graphic, but not the code to make it work. Thank you for your time in considering my request, Marcel.
Also, it would be a huge plus if this could play GodTube videos too. Just sayin'!

| I'm sorry, I really do not have the time to write up a mod at the moment. I'm currently only sharing what I made earlier.... |

The button code is already in the mod link provided. There's no provided image to use as a button, but you're good with buttons - and the mod already works with GodTube videos. It's not as clean as I would like since the page links aren't really the links to the videos themselves, but they do play.

I installed Marcel's and it plays the videos just fine. However; it creates a mess when there's BB code in the same post and you try to edit the post. When you click to edit the post, all of the BB code is now HTML code and that would really mess with the member's mind! (lol) Because if not corrected and the post is re-submitted as is, all of the HTML codes then display in the post. Also, my site is secure and I played around with the code for quite some time and never could get it to accept a secure video link using the https.
I am sorry it didn't work for me, Marcel. Except for the two problems above, it seemed to be the perfect mod.
I am going back to uninstall Marcel's, Carefree, and then I will attempt Leather Lip's that you've suggested.
Crossing my fingers and saying a prayer. . .

Marcel, since you are the author of the Weblog Mod, could you answer this question? http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=70387

Carefree, Leather Lips' mod displays this in the post instead of the video. http://www.mangionemagic.com/testforum2/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2
I was really hoping for something that would display the video. . . along with a button for the members to click on to insert the media codes [] [/].

| You've done something wrong, because Leatherlips' version creates a single link which (when clicked) plays the video. If you followed the topic and added all the code provided by Leatherlips and Etymon, the button function is provided. |

Carefree, I guess I didn't explain what I was referring to very good. I'm sorry! I didn't mean to imply I did Leather Lips' Video Mod, because I haven't. I was trying to say that according to his link here http://www.mangionemagic.com/testforum2/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2 only a button will be displayed in the post, not the video. Or, did I misunderstand his example on the above site? But the main thing I was looking at was the fact that not all of the buttons in his post worked properly.
I read the post and saw where there was a button code by someone else but then looked at Leather Lips' example using the link above. Are you saying if I download his mod from SnitzBitz and then follow the additional steps from that post, it will display the video or the video link. . .or the button as in his example?

| You'll get a new button in the post editor group (provided that you create a button, save it in the images folder, and name it as Etymon did in his code). When someone creates a video link using the [media][/media] function, the post will simply show a link titled "play media" or something similar (cannot recall precisely). When that link is clicked, a pop-out window will display the video. |

Okay, I just finished Leather Lips' mod. It plays the videos fine but I have two problems.
I must have done something wrong because I can't get the button I created to work when it's clicked on.
Also, my forum is secure. Do you have any idea as to what I could do to this mod to make the video links secure? Let me explain. With lucapan's YouTube Mod I made reference to in the first post in this topic, I was able to accomplish that easily. All I did was add the s to his YouTube links in the inc_func_commons.asp file and that stopped the security warning we were receiving when trying to play a video (see below). But, I didn't see any codes like this in Leather Lips' mod.
CodeTags(1,1,1) = "[youtube]"
CodeTags(1,2,1) = "[/youtube]"
CodeTags(1,1,2) = "<object width=""490"" height=""300""><param name=""movie"" value=""https://www.youtube.com/v/"
CodeTags(1,2,2) = """></param><param name=""wmode"" value=""transparent""></param><param name=""allowfullscreen"" value=""true""></param>"
CodeTags(1,1,3) = "<embed src=""https://www.youtube.com/v/"
CodeTags(1,2,3) = """ type=""application/x-shockwave-flash"" wmode=""transparent"" width=""490"" height=""300""></embed></object>"
I am going back to redo the part of the mod regarding the button to see if I can get it to work. Hopefully, I'll be back in a few.

One down and one to go. I had neglected to do as Etymon reminded here.
Reminder Note: Remember to include your .js files in inc_header_short.asp as well.
Sure hope the security problem is as easily fixed. |
