Hi

I would like to seek your assistance on how do I make tubepress pro into something like (www.pksoh.com). I am looking at the player portion as well as the big square portion below the player with tabs.

Can I configure it to show tabs of most viewed in my youtube account and also specific playlist? Please kindly advice

Hi,

Sure this should be possible with TubePress. The first thing to do would be to pick which tabs implementation that you're going to use. Perhaps something like jQuery UI? If you could tell me which you end up going with, I can provide guidance on how to achieve what you're after. Thanks!

Hi Eric,

Thank you very much for your reply.

Firstly I'm not too tech savvy so please do bear with me.

Actions:
I have selected this tab function (http://thethefly.com...e-...ccordions/)

My goal is to create 3 to 4 tabs of video. They are:
Tab 1: Videos in my account
Tab 2: Videos in my specified playlist
Tab 3: display tags (words)

Is this possible? Please kindly point me the direction to achieve this. Thank you,

[eric]

OK, that should work. Based on what I can glean from the docs for that software, I think you'll want to simply include something like this inside your WordPress page (using WordPress's page editor):

[tabs title="Videos" event="click" ]
    [tab title="My videos"]
        [tubepress mode="user" userValue="yourYouTubeUserName"]
    [/tab]
    [tab title="My Playlist"]
        [tubepress mode="playlist" playlistValue="someYouTubePlaylistId"]
    [/tab]
    [tab title="Scuba Diving Videos"]
          [tubepress mode="tag" tagValue="scuba diving"]
    [/tab]
[/tabs]

As you can see, we're just using TubePress shortcodes to generate a gallery for each tab's content. Assuming that the above works for you, you could continue to customize each gallery by adding options to each shortcode. Does that make sense?

Hi,

Thank you for the code. It worked!

However I got some cosmetics matters to ask you. My site (http://www.justinkongyt.com) after using the tab function together with tubepress, there is this weird line that runs across. You have any idea how to remove it?

[eric]

Glad to hear that we're making progress!

As for the weird line, I'm having trouble identifying particularly what you're talking about. Could you perhaps send an annotated screenshot pointing out the problem?

please find the screenshot above. I cannot seem to put the image here so you may download from the link.

Ah OK thanks for sending that. The problem seems to be that an HTML <code> tag has snuck into your HTML source, which is messing up the layout. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/RcS8f.png.

The solution would be to simply get rid of those <code> tags. I would recommend using WordPress's HTML Editor (as opposed to the Visual Editor) and see if you can simply edit that out from that page. Make sense?

Hi Eric,

Where can I find the file name of this code to edit? Please kindly advice.

[eric]

You should be able to make the edit from within WordPress's admin section. Probably not necessary to edit any PHP files directly. Here's what I would do

• Go to WP Admin > Pages and find your "Video" page.
• Click on "Edit" for your Video page
• Make sure that you have "HTML" selected for the editor mode (as opposed to "Visual")
• Search for any <code> tags and delete them

This is, of course, assuming that your "Video" page is in fact a regular WordPress page and not a template.
