PHP Melody v2.0.1

[Andrew]

Good news!

PHP Melody v2.0.1 is now available for download. This version is the first maintenance and security release for v2.0. This version is a patch and does not come with new features but it does address an important security fix in SWF Upload. In total the following 23 bugs were fixed:

Front-end Bugs

* JW Player 6 code fixed to use watermarks, JW Key and the correct autoplay settings.
* Error with /report.php links (affects only older sites which used to run v1.6.x).
* Issue with video comments for Vimeo.com videos.
* The 'Suggest video' page was not updated (affects the premium PHP Melody themes only).
* Articles listings were missing the thumbnail image (affects the premium PHP Melody themes only).
* Related articles were not working before (zero listings).
* Internet Explorer issue with video resizing.
* Vimeo.com videos failed to work with JW Player 6.
* The 'contact' page was emailing messages without any formatting.
* Live search recommendations issues with Cyrillic characters.
* Updated SWF Upload. This patches vulnerabilities found in the previous versions of SWF Upload.

Back-end Bugs

* JW Player 6 code fixed to use watermarks, JW Key and the correct autoplay settings.
* PHP Strict Standards fix.
* Administrators couldn't edit the user data correctly (about me field was not saving the data and the 'Last.fm' field couldn't be changed).
* Videos couldn't be edited to use an external video source.
* YouTube.com URLs could not be edited and/or swapped with a locally hosted video.
* Wrong date issue with modified videos.
* Video checking bot was not working correctly if more than 20 videos were selected.
* Filter for the 'sticky' articles was not working.
* Search queries on the 'Members' page were removed after any action (approve / delete).
* Added the missing support for JPEG image upload in all the WYSIWYG forms.

Other

* The previous update (v2.0) was missing .htaccess and, as a result, the embed links/code failed to work.
* Missing required PHP function prevented the simultaneous installation of PHP Melody v2.0 and Mobile Melody v2.6.
* Moved the max. daily upload limit from being hardcoded to the 'Settings' page, in the backend.

This patch is classified as a "Security Release"! We urge all our customers to upgrade their site(s) immediately.

Notes: The premium themes as well as Mobile Melody were also updated! You can download the latest versions from your Customer Area account.

Thank you and enjoy PHP Melody!

Thanks for the release. I'll be updating this weekend.

Thanks very much, Andrew. Sounds great. If I upload this- will this delete the various tweaks in code that I've made? For example, I added text to the upload page?

Yeah it will. You'll have to make the same code changes in the new files.

[Shannon]

Thanks!

but not logo, videos or pages or stuff, right ? just lose coding?

Just updated, and everything went well, but It says that "File not Found" when I try to play a video after the update. I backtracked and found out that functions.php and player.tpl were the culprits. I am not sure what it is, but it works fine when I upload the two files from 2.0, but if I upload either one or both of the ones from 2.0.1, it does not work.


@Shannon
You can use this program called Beyond Compare where you can compare all the files and see where there are any differences between the old one and this one. Its Very Easy.

What sort of videos were they? Local/remote, filetype (flv, mp4, mp3..etc) ?

[surafelm]

@Andrew
I have Local mp4 videos.

I compared the player.tpl, and lines 145, 345 and 507 are the ones that are different from the previous one except for the share and the logo.
Update: I replaced those lines with the one from the lines on 2.0, and it worked.

and please have a look at functions.php on line 1497, and 963.

[Andrew]

Thanks for the very prompt reply surafelm. These lines may pose problems but I'm a bit baffled as to why I can't replicate the problem.

That's why I sent you an email and if possible please help me out. Thanks again.

Hello
I have the update v2. 01 run.
Unfortunately, JW Player 6 plays are still no videos from vimeo.com

Edit:
With the update of the JW Player v6. 5 it works
thank you

[Shannon]

thanks surafelm

[Shannon]

does that mean we should wait to upload this new one- is this a universal issue?

[Andrew]

not working ((( paste the key to player in Admin Area and nothing (((

Do you have the PRO (paid) JW Player version? I reviewed everything and the code looks OK. Should work perfectly fine.
