Wonder if this was my theme, however changing themes has no effect.

See site: http://www.eiproject.net/learnportal/modules/webshow/singlelink.php?lid=2

The embed link from YouTube works fine in my HTML editor, but not in Xoops.

Thanks of any help.

Play a YouTube embed link in the WebShow module by entering just the video id from the youtube url.

To embed the video from this url:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c85B2nxgLwU&feature=related

Enter c85B2nxgLwU into the WebShow submit form.

Thanks for using WebShow!

Tcnet,

Is there away to have the relevant text that goes with the video to be displayed on the right side?

Yes, but it is not automated at this point. You have to manually copy and paste the text into the WebShow description and/or full body text area.

WebShow's short description area should be a short one sentence summary that includes your keywords. It is used as the page's meta-description tag and is filtered to construct the page's meta-keyword tag.

Once the media entry has been submitted, the Modify Entry Editor will display a full page Text Editor that can be used to add extended text or html to WebShow's singlelink page view.

As far as where these items are displayed in your page layout, you would need to modify templates/style.css and templates/webshow_singlelink.html to rearrange the page elements.

Templates/style.css line 51
#ws_body {float: left; width: 98%; margin: 3px 2px 3px 2px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;}


affects templates/webshow_singlelink.php line 23.
<{if $link.bodytext !=""}>    
 <
div id="ws_body" class="itemBody">
  <
div id="ws_bodyText">
    <
h3 id="ws_bodyTitle"><{$link.ltitle}>h3>         
    <{
$link.bodytext}>
  div>
 div>                  
<{/if}>


BTW, If you use the Player Editor to make the media player wider the webshow template will automatically change from double to single column. The player will be on top, Info Box in the middle and Full Html page on bottom.

Sorry for the long post. I hope your question was answered.

Thank you for the detailed information. At sometime I would like to commission you to do some custom work. I will contact you via PM.

This is one of my favorite mods, which boost why utilizing XOOPS makes sense.

Hi Tcnet,

Let me explain in better detail more about how the right panel would be used.

A - Display an ad as text of a video
B - Display an image
C - Display thumbs of other videos

I think we can accomplish that fairly easily.

Have you thought about adding a right column to your theme and then adding those items using custom blocks? WebShow's Link Block will display thumbnails of other videos sorted by category, random, date, popularity or rating.

I am seeing now how you are using the 3rd col to reduce that space to the right. Lets carry on this discussion over at WebShow. Nice stuff over that way.

Rick
