Grid of Videos


Design and Skin Customization

Ok. I have the basics working.

A few things I need to do still though:
1) Remove the border/frame. Is that in the CSS?
2) Correct the aspect ratio of the videos. They seem squashed vertically.
3) Make the video titles a few characters longer.
4) Add Vimeo functionality
5) The local "Video" movies don't work. When you click on them it goes to a non-existant page.

I'll dig in later today but any tips in the mean time are appreciated.

This only works with the Seamless module, I'm guessing?

I wonder if it's related to the theme? I'm using The Ning theme.

Wow. That's the first time someone has made a video to help me specifically. You've won yourself a fan Derrick. Thank you.

I figured out that the template code goes here:
Widget Content > Template > Custom

But I'm still not clear where the CSS is placed to make that work. Any tips?

Thanks Strumelia and Derrick, and yes any grid layout would be better than the list. I have seen the other threads and haven't figured out how all that works. Where do you go to create a new template? Then when you've made one how do you implement it?

I have been using YouTube and Vimeo mostly to setup widgets.

A grid seems pretty standard in a lot of websites, Youtube and Vimeo included. I would not assume that each image in the grid was a live video.

Sorry but no. I was pasting originally. But I eliminated that by creating a new widget and building the table with just the tools in the widget. Nothing but a table... no other content. Three rows... and it made a result roughly 6 high (maybe more).
