== User Story ==
Create the ability to take videos from Vimeo, YouTube and add them to a
Plumi site.
This will enable broader sharing of content. Videomakers will not have to
re-upload their video to another site (the Plumi site) if they have
already done so elsewhere. It will also allow site editors to curate
content from other sites into a Plumi site.
* external videos offered as similar UX to publishing ordinary videos,
but instead of uploading a video the user can add a link / embed code from
Vimeo, Youtube or other site
* ability to list external videos within all the usual listings
throughout the site, but also separately from normal videos on the site if
we choose (not sure yet in which listings we need to differentiate them,
we should just have this ability if needed)
== Video Publish Form - UI ==
The place to change HTML etc. for buttons in videoaddform.pt in
plumi.content
CONFIRMED WORKING
* Front page latest videos
* http://staging.engagemedia.org/
* Members video folder
* http://staging.engagemedia.org:9080/Members/anna/videos
* Author page
* http://staging.engagemedia.org:9080/author/anna
* Latest videos page
* http://staging.engagemedia.org:9080/latestvideos
* Other videos by this author listing - video view pages
* http://staging.engagemedia.org:9080/Members/AIPP/videos/Our-Forest-Our-
Life-English/view
* Search results
* Taxonomy listings - Genre, Topic, Country, Language - THESE EXIST IN
THE EM.TAXONOMIES AND EM.SKIN PRODUCTS
* eg. http://staging.engagemedia.org:9080/taxonomy/genre/documentary
== REMAINING TASKS ==
4. error validation - no message on short summary, brings you back to the
buttons not to the page itself . Some validation errors don't create an
'Error:' box. Currently, the publish form needs that error box to detect
that the form has been posted once and so to hide the big 'Upload' and
'Paste Link' buttons and show the form instead when the page loads. I've
fixed three of these but apparently adding too much text to the summary
creates an error that doesn't trigger the error box (there is just a red
outline around the relevant field). Two possible resolutions: (1) fix the
fields with non-standard validation behaviours, or (2) find a more robust
way of letting javascript know the form has errors (eg. render something
hidden) .. or both ideally.
this is inconvenient/confusing in some circumstances but probably not
critical
17. move thumbnail attachment to underneath add video file - and add the
red dot for required field (even if it is not *actually* required). Change
helper text ONLY FOR EXTERNAL VIDEOS to say "Add a thumbnail image for
this video".
18. issue with other videos by this author - no image or duration
