Plugins :: Blog :: Which plugin should we use to get Google video and YouTube videos in our posts?

April 23, 2007

It works in Eduspaces.net, but I have not found a way to make it work in our Elgg 0.7 installation.

Hi David, the plugin that you need its contenttoolbar, it is in the plugins repository.

Hi, Diego, that plugin is not in http://elgg.org/mod/plugins anymore. I thought it was not working, but I found that in my recent Elgg 0.7 install, it works properly without having to install any plugin. The only thing that is bad is that I cannot control the size of the videos, as I can in Eduspaces.net. Videos are small, as in Eduspaces.net by default and cannot change it. I suppose that in the next version it will be exactly as in Eduspaces.net.

Hi David, the contenttoolbar never was in the plug-in directory. It is only in the svn repository. However it would be integrated in the elgg 0.8 release.
It allows to you control de video size and adds a widget for your profile!
