cyberseo - youtube feeds how?

[Badmaash]

Hi

I am thinking of buying the cyberseo plugin

I heard it can pull youtube rss feeds

I loaded this url in my browser https://youtube.com/rss/search/body%20rubs.rss

and the number of videos that it pulls is limited

Does that mean cyberseo will not be able to pull all the videos for a certain search term?

Can it pull vimeo, metacafe, daily motion videos too?

Thanks

email him.

i had it pulling youtube videos no problem when I used it.

The one thing you'll want is to make sure you do NOT pull the descriptions. The people on youtube are fucking stupid and they post long idiotic descriptions of bullshit, urls, and crap that will make your site look stupid.

So just grab the video, leave the descriptions out, and your site will look nicer.

As far as I'm aware, it can pull ANY RSS feed into Wordpress.

Like this: http://www.cyberseo.net/syndicating-youtube-videos/

As about the other sources, the plugin can pull from anything that have an RSS/Atom or XML feed (e.g. vimeo, metacafe or daily motion).

Yes, the plugin allows to do almost anything. E.g. pulling the youtube videos w/o descriptions. The one just needs to post a request to the official support forum and I'll provide the solution.

Last I checked, YouTube won't let you pull more than 50 vids at a time: https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/reference

Under max-results:

The default value of this parameter is 25, and the maximum value is 50. However, for displaying lists of videos, we recommend that you set the max-results parameter to 10.

If you want to get more videos you have to paginate the feed by using the start-index and max-results parameters like this:

start-index=1
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/...max-results=50

start-index=101
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/...max-results=50

start-index=151
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/...max-results=50

The way I did it was just to add each one as a separate feed in CyberSEO.

I've not used Vimeo or MetaCafe feeds, but this works for getting more vids out of DailyMotion:

http://www.dailymotion.com/rss/relev.../body%20rubs/1
http://www.dailymotion.com/rss/relev.../body%20rubs/2
http://www.dailymotion.com/rss/relev.../body%20rubs/3
etc...

An example of a vimeo feed: http://vimeo.com/api/v2/channel/funny/videos.xml

A guide to syndicate it with CyberSEO:

Custom fields:

thumbnail_large->thumb
url->url
id->id

PHP code <?php .. ?>:

$post['guid'] = $post['custom_fields']['url'];
if (!cseo_post_exists($post)) {
    $post['post_excerpt'] = $post['post_content'] = '<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/' . $post['custom_fields']['id'] . '?portrait=0" width="608" height="375" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe>';
    unset($post['custom_fields']['url']);
    unset($post['custom_fields']['id']);
} else {
    $post = false;
}
