Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Everyone on holidays? whistle

Anyhow, I have finished adding some videos to my effort on this project, and put it live. I have to say, when it has videos in it, it rather looks good, but then I am prejudiced, as it did take a bit of work, and fumbling around.

I still want to do some tweaking, such as the colors, and perhaps a few other little housekeeping chores, but all in all I am rather pleased by it.

If anyone wants to check it out, you can See It Here. :eek:

Wow that is awesome looking! What plugin is handling the slideshow of extra pics?

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Next Generation which really is quite nice. Easy for a dumb blond like me to use as well. Available Here (yes its a free plugin)

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

It seems the template for this project and other themes that were available are no longer being sold. If you want a copy, PM me.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Found this “tube” looking theme - have no idea how its functions compare to the one we started out with … http://www.themetube.com/r-3-columns-wordpress-themes-3-adulttube-adult-wordpress-video-theme-266.htm

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

he also has this one http://www.themetube.com/r-2-columns-wordpress-themes-2-adult-video-262.htm

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Nice finds Bec, :cool:

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Ok, the themetube.com templates are coded in the footer in a way that makes me suspicious of what we’re putting up … So if you use one, I’d get rid of whatever the fuck that is and put in a proper footer code.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Why I ran that TAC plugin for my themes, it identifies outgoing links in themes, for one to check. While most are simply links to the authors, it has found a few that link to their adsense or other sites.

Plugin Authors Site HERE

Plugin from Wordpress HERE

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Yea, I have that TAC on some of my blogs too. Really neat tool.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

For those who have the theme, On Demand, for use in this project, it is compatible with Wordpress 2.7

Just make sure you upgrade all of the plugins BEFORE you upgrade to 2.7 or you’ll get some plugin warnings.

But it all works, so if you haven’t started, or are still interested, get a hold of Bec for the theme, and make some cash pushing the videos from the sponsors, like Hunk Money, Blueloot, Mugscash, and others. Blake Mason’s new webmaster area has some videos too, and I think ZBucks also has some embed flvs available.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Another note, if you have upgraded to wp 2.7, you no longer have the “/” being reversed when you save the custom field so no need to delete, then past a second time and update the field. :smiley:

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Now THAT’s good news!! Thanks for the update on the new version and that theme’s compatability!

Yes, you need to add a custom field for both the thumbnail preview and the video embed.

For your first go, set up a custom field videoembed and one called thumbnail in the ‘key’ area. Then add the video embed code into value, and the url of the thumbnail into the value for thumbnail.

Resize your thumbnail to 192pixels wide first, before you upload.

The embed code should be provided from your sponsors. Just copy it and paste it.

Now, if the pdf file was corrupted, did you set up a video category? You will need to have that, in order for it to display right.

if you have questions, just post em, and I’ll be happy to answer what I can.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

Odd, what wasn’t working? I have two of them running just fine on WP 2.7, in fact I find it a bit easier than on the 2.6.2 version.

Re: Build a Fake Tube Site with Wordpress Tutorial

i think its just me its taken me a bit to get the hang of the theme now that im getting better with i will upgrade to 2.7 as i like the new setup in 2.7 . as well as in 2.6.2 i seem to get a error when activating the rating widget :frowning: im slowly getting there tho .
One Question tho is there anyway to have more than 6 vids displayed on the main page or does it max out at 6 ?
thanks in advance for your help
