Add-On Type(s)

Fieldtype

Tags

Simple fieldtype allowing you to link Dailymotion, Youtube and Vimeo videos to your weblog entries. Use the single tag to get the unique video ID, or use the tag pair to get embed code (that supports both Flash and HTML 5), thumbnail code and thumbnail link, customize video or thumbnail width and more!

Introduction

TubEE is a powerful fieldtype allowing you to get one or more user’s videos from dailymotion, youtube or vimeo, and put them into weblog entries. You can choose a different user per field if you want to with this useful fieldtype and then use the highly customizable tags in your templates to display the video, or just some information about it.

Features

  • Caching limits API calls and slow page loading
  • Supports dailymotion, youtube and vimeo videos
  • Simple interface with powerful customisation including width, height and autoplay
  • Excellent support availability
  • Flash and HTML 5 compatibility

Usage

Single Tag Use:
{field_name} - this will output the video ID
Tag Pair Usage:
{field_name}{/field_name}
- Parameters:
  - width - set the width in pixels of the embedded video or thumbnail image
  - height - set the height in pixels of the embedded video or thumbnail image
  - autoplay - set to 1 or 0 to enable/disable video autoplay (default is 0)
- Variables:
  - {tubee_thumbnail} - output an image tag of the video thumbnail
  - {tubee_title} - output the video title
  - {tubee_description} - output the video description
  - {tubee_embed_code} - output the embed code for the video
  - {tubee_thumbnail_url} - output the URL for the video thumbnail
  - {tubee_swf_url} - output the URL to the SWF file (N.B. With Youtube this doesn’t end with .swf)
  - {tubee_duration} - output the duration of the clip (either HH:MM:SS or MM:SS for clips less than an hour long)
  - {tubee_view_count} - output the total view count for the video (unformatted number)

Sample Code

The code below offers an example of how you might output some videos on your website:


<ul>
{exp:channel:entries channel="videos" orderby="date" limit="3" dynamic="off}
  <li>
    {video autoplay="1"}
      {tubee_title} ({tubee_duration}) - {tubee_view_count} views
      <br />
      {tubee_embed_code}
    {/video}
  </li>
{/exp:channel:entries}
</ul>

Doesn’t work at all - the field doesn’t show up in the backend! Stay away.

I had a bug right from the start where the add-on wouldn’t display on the publish page, but the developer never provided support after repeated requests. I got my money back.
