Question Regarding Seamless Module Function
Using Jamroom
Yep let me try applying Michaels Profile page all-in-one video TAB for members.
If it works nicely, the next steps would then be:
--> enable members to ADD a video by clicking on a simple ADD VIDEO link or button that brings them to ONE place or form or page where they can select the type of video they want to add to the site's video pool, and then add it. This would be accessible from either their own profile page or the main page Video top-nav link or the video moduleblock, or within the main video area display grid (where you'd be taken if you click on "view all" videos.)
--> once that was in place, I could eliminate or hide the redundant other three "video" TABS on the profile pages, replacing them with Michael's all-in-one video tab on the member profile pages.
--> Lastly, on the site's main index page:
1) the top nav link for VIDEO I would want to have NO drop down for vimeo/YT. I want the top nav Video Link to go to a GRID (looking something like the images grid) with maybe 4 or 6 across colums of thmbnails (of all three types of videos) and as many rows as i set. These vids I will set to display by most recently added (just like Images/Photos). Each video should include underneath it at least the video title and the member name who posted it. (as it is now, I see nowhere the names of the members who posted the videos..??) It doesn't matter whether it's a vimeo or uploaded or YT vid (that only matters when they are adding a video)...on my site anyway, people want to see all the vids in the community and be able to browse, search, and click on them in one place.
and 2) the content module on the main page showing latest videos currently only shows latest UPLOADED vids. I want it to show latest vids of all 3 types, just as I describe above...except the module will be a shorter selection, with a "view ALL" option button. Again, the video title and member's name needs to be under each one, and clicking ALL will take you to that same big grid showing all the site's videos in a grid in one place, paginated of course.
I think Soaring Eagle accomplished all of this early on on his site, and way more besides (i don't need the way more part though). unfortunately I don't have his coding experience and can't make this consolidation happen for myself.
I guarantee there will be many more coming from Ning who are going to be asking for the same thing.
Hey I'm willing to pay you JR Team guys to get all this done for me...just let me know what's needed. This whole Video/Audio 5 location 'separateness' remains as probably the biggest single stumbling block in the way of my getting my site ready to go live. I need ONE location for aduio clips, and ONE for videos...whether they are put on my site via uploaded or through other medium. My senior members get lost on the way to their kitchen for a sandwich. I need to make sure there aren't five kitchens.
