Re: [BETA] YouTube Videos Mod

I think I'm going by the wrong instructions as it gives a list of history and details then beneath it:

File Copy: Copy: root/*.* To: *.*

and then it gives the file edits. There's nothing about you tube files or folders you see? I think this is why I've messed up. So was I supposed to open the root folder then upload the folders within that? as there's no instructions :? please forgive me and I do appreciate your patience 8-)

DONE! So all it was is the fact that the instructions say "copy root/" and not "the contents of root" :roll: :oops: it may be an idea to add that for noobs like me :lol:

Keith thanks for your patience and I hope this helps others/ :roll:

I don't have any problems. However, I am posting because I want to either know if it's possible or give this suggestion to see if maybe you can do this for us who need it or would like it.

Now that you told us how to edit key words so that those videos show, I would like or suggest the following.

* A way to Add a title with big letters above the big displayed video.

This would be great for a forum like mine because this way, I can add a title every week showing the key videos for that week. So if this week I want to show "coin collection", then those are the videos that will show. Next week, I would title it "Vintage radio collection", so for that week, vintage radio collection will show etc etc..

Maybe there is a place to add a title on top or something you can add so we can add?
Thank you in advance for all the support and great MOD of course.
I plan on releasing a new version of the mod this weekend (God willing). The Page Title is included ;)
Awesome! You are the bomb Keith! Thanks for the heads up.

I might have problems though because I don't really know how to update things...lol
I just know how to edit or change what I need if I see it here.

You won't have any problems.

The update will only include 1 file edit. The rest will be simply re-uploading the contents in the root folder of the download 8-)

I'm pleased to announce that I finished the update. All I have to do now is package it up (install instructions, subsilver, etc). Hopefully this will be done before the end of the day.

* Edit - Considering that I implemented the last few changes recommended by the mod dev team, I'll be updating the version status to RC.

Once I release version 1.0.8 (which should be later today), updating will be a breeze. All you would have to do is delete the youtube folder in your phpBB root, and upload the new files to your phpBB directory.

Oh yeah... There's 1 simple file edit as well.

In your particular case, since you want to change (the new) Page Title, you'll have to edit the language file. After I release the updated mod, I'll post the instructions for you on how to edit the language file.
