New Extension/Plugin: Tubesock
Development and Programming
So - here’s my hat trick addon of the day… introducing TUBESOCK 😊
I built this because I’m sure I’m not alone in having difficulties explaining to clients how to copy/paste the Video ID from their you tube channel video to embed it into their website.
So this is where Tubesock comes in! Install it, assign your channel name in settings and then create the custom field. Hey Presto, You’ll get a populated video list of all available videos in the channel to select.
Combine that with the Tubesock plugin which enables you as a developer to output the video embed code in a clean compliant way as well as output thumbnail images of videos if you desire.
Comments/Suggestions all welcomed - as they are on all addons I release!
If you haven’t caught the other two addons I’ve released today, see below:

Sorry if it’s right under my nose, but which version of EE is it compatible with? I assume EE2 since you used the word “channel?”
This looks very useful I might add.
Sorry it’s 1.6.x addon - I’ve never personally referred to them as weblogs since the first thing I learned to do was to rename them to ‘channels’ or ‘sections’ 😊
Rgds,
Carl.
Awesome. I think I have a project very soon that could use this add-on.
I’ll report back if I have any questions or compliments. 😊

No worries… I’ve tested it on a few instances and have a few other people test it successfully, so just let me know if you have any problems.
Great work! I’ve added a couple of lines of code in order to use this filed inside a matrix.
function display_cell($cell_name, $cell_data)
{
return $this->display_field($cell_name, $cell_data);
}Tested and seems to work for me. Many thanks.

Awesome - if you want to send me your updated file - I’ll integrate it with my master svn repo. ([email protected])
Cheers,
Carl
Thanks for the Update - I’ve included that in this version (1.0.1) now.
Regards,
Carl.
Great work on the extension, it’s a great idea. Could you have the default selected option be blank? I want to have the field be optional, so having something always selected is problematic.
Good Idea Wes,
Updated code below - v 1.0.2 now has a ‘Please Select Video’ default state.

Carl, this is awesomeeee. Always a little painful explaining to clients how to paste in YouTube URLs.
Would it be possible to pull only videos from a particular playlist or favorites list in the channel? A client I’m working with has a collection of videos from a bunch of other people’s channels.
