Enable video embedding for users

[ed]

is there a module which lets users drop a URL for a youtube/vimeo video in which is then automatically embedded?

1. this will help with the project simplification
2. site editors will be using this more and more - and possibly in panels

[jim]

We probably need ​http://drupal.org/project/emfield - I'll add...

ED: what related modules do we need? (see project page link and choose)

[ed]

Youtube: ​http://drupal.org/project/media_youtube
Vimeo: ​http://drupal.org/project/media_vimeo
Flickr: ​http://drupal.org/project/media_flickr

Adding Facebook as it may well be going that way with third party logins:
​http://drupal.org/project/media_facebook

[jim]

EMField + Youtube + Flickr + Vimeo are in SVN... Facebook on back burner for now.

Now pending #263

[ed]

1. in, enabled - JK to add fields to CTs: project profile and resources

[jim]

"Video Links" field added to resource and projects... See: ​http://www.transitionnetwork.org/node/add/resource

Formatting is odd, why I don't know. That aside, is this ok?

[jim]

And added to Resource here: ​http://www.transitionnetwork.org/resources/test-video

Adding to Project similarly now...

[jim]

Done... Ed, thoughts?

[ed]

prefer: 1 video links field with option to add more for projects and resources

[ed]

description disabled

[jim]

Done. Closing.

[ed]

1. on node/add for all relevant CTs need to organise the stages into chronological order (really like the project option set to n/a)

ON VIDEO EMBEDDING IN GENERAL:

2. please sort it so that we embed videos in such a way as to enable us to present a list of all videos (e.g. a page with them all listed called "/video")

3. we'll need to embed videos so they're presented with thumbnails and show in pop-ups in the following CTs:
4. projects
5. resources
6. panes on panel pages (starting with the training page, but it's bound to spread to homepage, and other pages that are bound to go 'panel' (e.g. the film page which is being murmered about atm)

[ed]

and please style so that it's got a nice arrow and pop-up, not the big hairy arsed drupal arrow...

[jim]

1. Stages now ordered and consistently a 5 col row, rather than a list.
2. This is a load of new functionality... Will have a go tomorrow... Should I adding to Video field to Network News & Events CTs?
3. OK... see above.
4. Will see what other options there are and style those better - chat to Laura too.

[ed]

1. stages need ordering in ​http://www.transitionnetwork.org/node/add/project-profile
2. great - add video field to network news and blogs. Not events. the /video listing idea is a corker though - really worth it, so worth fiddling over
3. panes in panels is definitely needed too

[jim]

1. Stages ordered.
2. Blog entry and Network News CTs have video link, as do Resources and Projects. Any of the other news content types - or inis?? Have created a view at ​http://www.transitionnetwork.org/video
3. Video in panels needs: a) styling and b) easy option for training/panels users to implement. will look into the filter/embed code for body and fields.
4. Have removed the 'Drupal face' play button and made thumbnails bigger.

What do you think, Ed?

[jim]

Colorbox now being used for these - issue with scrollbars appearing in popup, but is fixed locally and will be coming to LIVE very soon.

Ed? Are we done on this ticket?

[ed]

1. good
2. that's enough
3. still to do - turn on module and make sure that able to be used - might be able to paste link into panel code, or need some mark-up - to be defined

5. last few setings need to be reset - cacherouter not saving changes - to do post-varnish move - drupal icon re-appeared, videos playing as pop-up

[jim]

Issue 5 was a cacherouter problem, fixed now.

All done I reckon...
