SixString, you're right on, with other users wanting to use this. Not being familiar with podcasts I have a couple of questions.

Does this create all the radio stations create into podcasts. If so how do you add them in the scripts.

How would one use this as admin and will artists be able to do the same.

Hope I'm clear.

Wow, that template pre-processor - the possibilities - the mind boggles!!!

And great podcast info, technique and code. Thanks Kyle, Six and Jill!

No, this creates a podcast for the play list you defined in your podcast.tpl file, if you wanted to add more play lists to it, I'd suggest creating separate podcast.tpl files with different play list id's.

JohnyBgood:

If you wanted the admin only to see the podcast do this

Quote:

{if is_numeric($_USER.user_id) && $_USER.user_id == 0} <a href="http://kyle.jamroom.net/index.php?t=podcast">Podcast</a> {/if}

Or just don't publish the URL...

And if you want your members to have a podcast link for their radio stations only... I'd have to see about adding it to the themes, unless Kyle beats me to it.


Hope this helps

Make sure you use this line:

{if is_numeric($_USER.user_id) && $_USER.user_id == "0"}

Instead of this:

{if is_numeric($_USER.user_id) && $_USER.user_id == 0}

As the second one could evaluate to false if the 0 isn't in quotes.

Oops, Thanks

Looks good! There's actually an easy way to make it so you just have 1 template, I'll post about it when I get back from lunch.

Anything simplified would be great.

OK, here it is...This is actually really cool, and I'm glad I just thought of it, as it'll remove a lot of unnecessary code from things I do hereon out. You can do the podcast.tpl file like this:

Code

{jr_playlist id=$id|default:"1" limit=$limit|default:"40" template=$template|default:"podcast_xml.tpl"}

Then all you have to do is call your template like this:

index.php?t=podcast

And it will automatically use all of those defaults, OR you can pass in any of those variables, and it will use those! i.e.

index.php?t=podcast&id=2 would use radio_id 2 instead of the deafult radio_id 1. Pretty cool eh? That eliminates the need for a bunch of different templates.

Also, you might want to stress that the template pre-processor needs to be named the same as the tpl, just with a .php extension, otherwise it won't work.

Cheers!

Kyle
