[Plugin: JW Player Plugin for WordPress] Problem uploading my commercial version!

@putabeaton,

Could you provide the exact error message the plugin is giving? That way I can isolate what the problem could be.

Thanks.

the exact message was “not valid format” … i downloaded my licensed player for the site…took that file and uploaded it. So then i went inside the original zip and took out the documents, same thing… is there a directory i can put the file in?

Can you provide a screenshot and send it to [email protected]?

Thanks.

sent and thank you!!!

Thanks for sending the screenshots. I found the source of the problem and have a fix for it which will be part of the next update. If you would prefer not to wait you can download the development version or I can show you where to make the change.

Let me know.

Thanks.

yes please show me what i need to do

You will need to edit jw-player-plugin-for-wordpress/admin/UpdatePage.php. On line 118 you should find a function called player_upload(). Edit this function so it looks like the following:


function player_upload() {
return unpack_player_archive($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]);
}


That should do it.

Let me know if you have any issues.

so change:

function player_upload() {
$type = $_FILES[“file”][“type”];
if ($type == “application/x-zip-compressed” || $type == “application/zip”
|| $type == “application/x-zip” || $type == “application/octet-stream”) {
return unpack_player_archive($_FILES[“file”][“tmp_name”]);
}

to :

function player_upload() {
return unpack_player_archive($_FILES[“file”][“tmp_name”]);
}

??

That’s correct.

worked! ur the man!

about using my own skin should i start a new topic?

does this message refer to my licensed player and the page i changed?

task queue failed at step 0: error #2032

…

mind you it worked fine with the non commercial version

Can you provide a link to the page where the error is happening?

Try removing the registered symbol ‘?’ from the name of your custom player.

I am having lots of issues getting this plugin installed. After installing I get the following message on the JW Player menu “Current Player: Version Unknown”. When I try and upgrade the plugin OR install my licensed version, nothing works. I have tried making the changes listed above and I get errors in the admin panels.

I have been using WordTube, but thought that this would be a better solution. Not so far…

Help!
