I have the pro version, and the default gallery shows multiple users successfully through the "user1 + user2" but I want to search across multiple users.
When I attempt to search, it searches all of YouTube, rather than just videos from user1 + user2.

Idea 1: I tried searchResultsRestrictedToUser= "user1 + user2", but it doesn't work for multiple users, only 1.

Idea 2:I also tried an alternate method where I tagged all my videos in user1 and user2 with a specific tag, and i wanted to search videos with that specific tag. But that didn't work either.

If any body has any ideas, solutions,PHP code additions or a note saying that it is impossible to do this with Tubepress and/or the Youtube API, please let me know, Thanks and much appreciated.

Hi,

Unfortunately this functionality is not yet offered by the YouTube API (see "author" in the reference docs). I believe that, at least in theory, TubePress could mimic this functionality by making multiple requests to the API. Feature requests are always welcome! Features with the most votes will be implemented first.

Sorry that I can't be of more help at the moment. Anything else we can help you with?
