Product videos from youtube [Support Thread]

[jkspin]

Hmmm.... sounds like maybe your tpl_modues_youtube.php is in the wrong place:

../includes/templates/your_theme/templates/tpl_modues_youtube.php

is working for me, both online and at my local server. Have you edited your tpl_product_inf_display.php file to include the line

<?php require($template->get_template_dir('/tpl_modules_youtube.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_modules_youtube.php'); ?>

AND placed it in includes/templates/your_template/templates/ ?

Thanks for your helpful reply; I've downloaded the latest version 1.3 of this mod and reinstalled everything in the correct locations and I can add all kinds of videos through the admin that are visible in the database phpMyAdmin panel, but still no love.

The /includes/templates/my template/templates/tpl_modules_youtube.php simply refuses to load into the /includes/templates/my template/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php page, no matter where I place the code. It just gets stripped out when the page loads, leaving this unhelpful bit of code behind:

<!--bof youtube -->
<!--eof youtube -->

*sigh*. I've never had this problem with a mod before - it's rather perplexing.

I've even added youtube.com to my .htaccess and crossdomain.xml files just incase it was being blocked that way, but no luck.

Oh well, thanks for the reply. I'm glad others are able to use this at least.

If anybody else is having the same issues I've had getting this mod to work, I found an alternate method to getting YouTube videos in your product page:

http://mydigitalfixation.com/how-to-add-youtube-video

It's essentially just pasting YouTube's iframe embed code directly into the product description text editor form (in HTML mode) on the product editing page in Admin.

Works fine, and you also have the added flexibility to select YouTube's extra embedding options such as using https to avoid error messages and the no-cookie viewer for increased customer privacy.

I have installed the add on to www.irishshopper.co.uk and it is working OK but it does not work on www.irishshopper.com even though it is accepting the Yourtube 11 character code OK.

The test clip we have is on the same procuct on both sites

Is there anyway you can get the clip to show in the middle of the Shopping Cart rather than left aligned ? I have enclosed the code in <center> and </center> but it made no difference

Hello,

Just was wondering if any of you guys have thought about making youtube video pop up in a light box...???

If yes, could you please share with me the code or module you used.

If no, I think that it's definitely worth trying.

Here are some great ideas: http://embedyoutubevideo.com/lightbo...be-joomla.html

Far more compatible with 1.3.8 are nasty HACKER SCRIPTS.

You should be paying attention to upgrading, not silly entertainment videos for customers.

Hi, I'm using zen-cart v1.3.9h. I was wondering what happens when the video ends in this addon. Does anybody know if recommended videos show up after the video ends or does the video just end and show a black screen. I do not want other recommended videos from youtube to show up on my product listing.

Thank you for your help.
