Ok some big changes based on the requests. Please test with the old one disabled. Nearly ready for a final realise I think. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40574414/s2Member-Video-Shortcodes-v0.0.4.zip Its now 2 shortcodes, 1 for a single video(with multi videos per page support) and 1 for playlists support added for download key to allow non-member the option to view and music only support.
attributes for playlist remain the same but with the addition of a download key to allow non-member the option to view
To use for music set the height to 24 and just replace the video file with an appropriate format eg mp3
Has been simplified to use for single videos(removed size option and numbers)
To use to embed multiple players in one page set the “id” value to be unique for every shortcode
An important not with multi embeds: Each player has to have a unique ID I’m using ‘videoplayer’, when embedding multi players the ID’s will change videoplayer1, videoplayer2, videoplayer3 etc etc, so I have added the class ‘videoplayer’ to every player to make it easy to apply your CSS rules.

Hi Ross,
I think so I will look into it.
Yes its possible I will add that option
It’s possible but do browsers support this? Maybe with a plugin. Its not a format I would advise using but you could do it all the same or maybe offer that format as a download.
Yes. Use:

Hi Dean, The results are different depending on whether you are logged in as admin or not, is that right? I don’t use that plugin so don’t know exactly where it conflicts. However I did take a quick look and can see that the “Display random version number to all non-administrative users” under Tweaks -> Other tweaks. is not compatible with s2member and should be disabled. Can you start with that and let us know how you get along |

Hi Core, I have made a shortcode that I’m currently using that can switch videos between SD and HD, but I don’t use a playlist. The plugin has fallbacks for people that don’t have flash (iPhones/iPads). The download fallback can also be removed, but please bear in mind to make sure people can’t download the video full stop you can only stream in rtmp mode, so no fallbacks. So what features do you need? sd/hd, playlist, skin and no download? I’m not sure about someone to test and review but I would be happy to take a quick look and let you know if I can see any problems but I’m not an expert in those setups. If you want to private message me you can email: me {at} phillymax dot com |

@ Echo Its mainly down to your theme so you will need to play with the css. maybe adding something like
to your themes style.css file. #videoplayer being the id of the player. And as you know you can play around with the shortcode attributes
Maybe make playlistsize smaller. Hope that helps you, let me know. @ Core Thank you, I’m glad its working for you. Yes I will look into expanding it for those features. And yes you can increase the amount of videos in the playlist:
Change that to the amount of videos in your playlist, then you must reference them in the shortcode like:
so if you had 10 videos the reference for the last video would be
Let me know how you get along |

Hi Echo, Here is the finished plugin. (deactivate the other one first) Has fallback options and displays thumbs etc. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40574414/s2member-playlist-shortcode.zip Use it like this:
size = number of videos in the playlist, then just reference them in the shortcode and the plugin will do the rest |

Hi Matt, Yes thats possible. You can do it a few ways, you can redirect based on level or you could give users custom capabilities and direct based on those. So create your welcome pages like /group1/welcome/ and /group2/welcome/ then give your users the relevant ccaps. Then in WordPress under Dashboard => s2Member® General Options => Login Welcome Page your see an input box ‘↓ Or, you may configure a Special Redirection URL, if you prefer. You’ll need to type in the full URL, starting with’ In that box put

Sorry Mary, I’ve done a few tests with that player trying to get it too work but have been unsuccessful. My advice would be to give jw player a try. Out of interest are you able to download the video ok if you type this in your address bar?

Hi Mary, What is the name of the file you uploaded? Have you put it in the same directory as wp-config.php? What are you using to ftp? Can you please check the file permissions on it and also on /s2member-files/ directory. Thank you |

It certainly is defiantly good to look more into how they work. Right I’m confident this will work across all browsers its a different approach as webkit based browser don’t seem to like the other method. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40574414/s2playlist.zip Use it in posts/pages like:

Can you download and install this plugin https://dl.dropbox.com/u/40574414/s2member-video-playlist-shortcode.zip then in your post/page use
See if that works, then we can clean it up if it does |

Your rudeness and ignorance are a barrier, and why are you so ungrateful? I had stopped and taken the time to help you, had you worked with me this problem would have been solved.
By ruling out plugins as a cause and by giving you my precious time
Why didn’t you say that from the start then? How are we supposed to know? Could have saved a reply.
Notice the part were I said if your using that? As your problem is still as I said earlier a conflict interfering with the parsing of the shortcode, I’m right to assume its a plugin such as that, as its been well documented on this forum that it causes problems identical to yours
Really? then the next step would be to look at your theme right? And by following the advice originally given to you when you asked to be payed for finding an issue that didn’t exist. Are you still hacking the core files? Could be your problem? |

No you have done it correctly. Log out, then log in with that account you created for me and go to the /test-philly/ page and see if it works? If your logged out or don’t have access to the file, it comes up “JW Player® appears here.” thats because the player won’t render without a valid file. I can’t see that it matters though as I suppose you wouldn’t have access to the page if you didn’t have access to the file |

Hi Mary, There is some sort of problem with your server/hosting environment. I got the following error when trying to access that file
Please can you download this file unzip it and upload it to your server http://www.s2member.com/r/server-check-tool/ so that you can navigate to it here website.com/s2member-server-check-120703.php That will run a couple of compatibility tests and hopefully give us some more info

Thank you I’m glad they have been of use. Right basically when you generate the file you need to generate the policy, key and signature to append to the url so that access is granted, like:
This code may work for your setup, Its not on mine.
Try that and please let me know if it works, You can see the pattern to add more files to it. |

Hi Mike, If you try to access the video directly by typing the url in the browser like: http://www.yoursite.com/wp-content/plugins/s2member-files/video.mp4 what happens? I’m just wondering if its your browser not supporting the file type? Is it mp4? |

Hi Mary, You need to remove the & and everything after it, you cant reference the image like that because the script that protects the video wont be able to process it.
On another note I would recommend using something like the jw player which will give you fallback options for people who dont have flash, probably better supported here too Hope that helps
