    Post Allow Videos - A Quick Tutorial

    O.k., for the record - this can be a bit of a security risk. But if you are allowing HTML via your TinyMCE editor in ads already this probably won't make it any more insecure than it is already. Still, I will not accept blame if something happens to your site from adding this.

    To allow videos in advertisements do the following:

    1. Turn on HTML by going to your admin area ==> ClassiPress ==> Settings ==> Classified Ads Configuration ==> and selecting "Yes" next to "Allow HTML:" - Don't forget to save your settings.

    2. Make a back-up copy of "/wp-content/themes/classipress/includes/theme-functions.php"

    3. Around line 892 find the following code:

    Code:
    <script type="text/javascript">
        <!--
        tinyMCE.init({
            mode : "exact",
            theme : "advanced",
            skin : "default",
            elements : "description",
            plugins : "",
            theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,|,formatselect,fontselect,fontsizeselect",
            theme_advanced_buttons2 : "cut,copy,paste,pastetext,pasteword,|,bullist,numlist,|,outdent,indent,|,undo,redo,|,link,unlink,cleanup,code,|,forecolor,backcolor",
            theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
            theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
            theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
            theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
            theme_advanced_resizing : true,
            theme_advanced_resize_horizontal : false,
            content_css : "<?php echo get_bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/styles/master.css",
            languages : 'en',
            disk_cache : true,
            width : "<?php echo $width; ?>",
            height : "<?php echo $height; ?>"
        });
        -->
    </script>
    Replace it with the following code

    Code:
    <script type="text/javascript">
        <!--
        tinyMCE.init({
            mode : "exact",
            theme : "advanced",
            skin : "default",
            elements : "description",
            plugins : "media",
            theme_advanced_buttons1 : "bold,italic,underline,strikethrough,|,justifyleft,justifycenter,justifyright,justifyfull,|,formatselect,fontselect,fontsizeselect",
            theme_advanced_buttons2 : "cut,copy,paste,pastetext,pasteword,|,bullist,numlist,|,outdent,indent,|,undo,redo,|,link,unlink,media,cleanup,code,|,forecolor,backcolor",
            theme_advanced_buttons3 : "",
            theme_advanced_toolbar_location : "top",
            theme_advanced_toolbar_align : "left",
            theme_advanced_statusbar_location : "bottom",
            theme_advanced_resizing : true,
            theme_advanced_resize_horizontal : false,
            content_css : "<?php echo get_bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/styles/master.css",
            languages : 'en',
            disk_cache : true,
            width : "<?php echo $width; ?>",
            height : "<?php echo $height; ?>"
        });
        -->
    </script>
    Now you should see a little "filmstrip" icon on your text editor. Clicking that will bring up a dialogue where the URL to the video can be placed. TinyMCE will translate that URL into the video and post it into the ad.

    That'sit!

    I'v added smiley's to my site too. That is a bit more involved, but if people are interested I may make a post about that too.
