Videos Support

[WP V0RT3X]

Open httpdocs/applications/videos/modules/front/videos/index.php and move

        $tabs['new'] = array( 'title' => \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack( 'videos_tab_new' ),
                                   'url'   => \IPS\Http\Url::internal( 'app=videos&module=videos&controller=index&tab=new', 'front', 'videos_tab_new' )
        );

below /* Setup index tabs */

Btw I DON'T recomment editing addon files, do this on your own risk.

Hi @Mike John

We noticed Google search console was reporting hundreds of different urls with parameters for categories pages

Can you add a canonical link in the code for categories (and for videos items)

This is very important for SEO thank you

[sudo]

How much does it cost to remove the footer tag?

[Maxxius]

It is still not clear for me after reading the app description - does it have those inline notifications for followed content or is the users notified about followed content only by email?

[Saurabh Jain]

any possible way of  embedding playlist 

say i have 40 videos in 1 play list 

they are lecture 1 lecture 2   ..lecture 40 on  subject

 

Is it possible to import all in single website url 

 

[AmericanRev2]

Does this add on "UPLOAD" the video to your site or does it just "EMBED" it from the source?

BUGS

1. Can't move more than one video at a time
2. Video size (on auto) seems to be a bit larger than you would think it should be
3. Sometimes categories will duplicate themselves on creation
4. Start a topic still shows when adding a video even if the feature is turned off

REQUESTS

1. Make category list a block so we can move it or at least add the option to move it from the side bar to the top of the videos
2. "Quick Add" should be an option inside the categories and not just when adding a new video from the home screen

 

Here are some examples of different "Media Import" URL's...

Can you please add a feature to people to actually reply to comments similar to youtube?

I'm using IPB's internal comments system. This is something that would be best implemented in IPB itself instead of me adding a custom comments system with reply support.

Noted for the next update. If you've got ftp access to your files, let me know and I can pass along an edit for you to test this sooner.

You can purchase copyright removal here. I can't offer it in the ips marketplace.

Using the default followed content notification. So basically it will send the same notification that a topic, download or blog entry would use for example.

Playlist support is not really supported unless you enable "paste embed" support for your group and add the custom playlist html from Youtube.

Primarily supports video embed/oembed links but does have basic html5 video upload support.

All noted, if you've got no priority here. I'll start with the first bug. Are you moving from the category? Because it appears to be providing me a move option for multiple videos.

Yeah but I cant see the price without logging in. I just wondered if you could list/post the price even though you cant sell it as such here.

It's $45.

Great app!

My main problem is not being able to move a video posted as a topic in the forum to the Videos application.

It takes a while for members used to a forum, to learn now that there is a new place to post video stuff and discuss it there, even if it is in the main menu. As it is now, videos are spread allover with no distinct place.

Any ideas?

Something like "add to videos app" is not currently supported but something I can look at. I assume you've mostly got youtube embeds in these topics? Just a single video?

That would be great!

Yes, a single Youtube embed with a comment.

I won't be able to include in a small update but noted for a future feature update.

Can I get board access to take a look? Just did a quick test on my forums and moved 2 videos into a different category without issue.

[Michael.J]

Videos app has been updated with several more bug fixes.

[Sovereign Grace Singles]

My videos application no longer seems to work. The page is blank: https://www.christforums.com/videos/

This may have something to do with a recent Cpanel/WHM update?

Also the video link in menu manager is no longer able to be placed [moved] as a sub menu. 

Edited November 5, 2019 by Christforums

[Maxxius]

My guess would be perhaps a videos folder exists on your root folder of IPS installation? If so delete it.

Thanks, renaming the folder worked. Odd thing is that the folder has existed for some time and wasn't a problem up until a recent Cpanel/WHM update. 

[Maxxius]

You're welcome. Yeah I'm sure it's server update/config related. I had the same issue when forums folder was created on the root of the FTP and I was pulling my hair why forums access got forbidden error. 😄

[Maxxius]

I wonder if Videos system is integrated to IPS Ignore settings? I mean would it be possible to ignore Videos uploaded by certain memebers?
