Forum Media System

[[R] NuclearGeneral]

Here it is ladies and gentlemen, the modification that will change your life. With this modification you will no longer need other third party apps, or even other IPS products to handle a media system, this turns the forum application already default with your IPB purchase into a media system, to display latest videos on board index and to go through pages and pages of previous videos, so what are you waiting for? want to know more, keep reading:

 

Features:

• follows forums permissions
  
• group based submissions allowance
  
• select what forums to grab videos from
  
• creates new video from topic or reply or both (enable or disable in the settings)
  
• grabs title, description, and thumbnail directly from service of the media file (will resize thumbnail using GD library so that is a must, and saves resized image)
  
• supports all default IPB media tags (also supports the blip.tv media tag found in the market, as I myself like blip).
  
• easy modal window pop up to view video, size of modal setting in acp settings
  
• easy link to the discussion forum for video
  
• displays X amount of latest video submissions on board index (amount can be changed in settings).
  
• display more videos (displays X amount of videos based on per page setting in acp, also pagination to go back further)
  
• delete topic or post, deletes video as well (so it no longer displays on board index or more videos).
  
• moves topic or post? will move video discussion url to match.
  
• made a new topic forgot video? don't worry, will also grab videos from an edit if the forum and user group are allowed
  
• decide to remove video from a topic or post? still no worries, will remove video as well.
