Thanks & greetings, -asb

I wonder if there something special about this module or if it's straightforward through coder, I'll see what I can do in a couple of weeks.

#2

Conceptually, as long as the YouTube API itself has not changed, this is probably pretty straightforward. May look into this here soon - just scoping it out for a new project.

#3

Just wondering if anyone has already attempted to port this, if not I may do so today.

Here is an early patch to port the module to Drupal 6, seems to work okay, definitely needs to be reviewed.

Try these patches. I used coder to determine what needed to be changed and manually made the changes. It wasn't a lot of work, but I do have the module installed. As far as usage of the module, I'm looking into that. It would be great to have a module for YouTube that works like the Flickr Module.

Here's an additional patch for the module to be applied after the above. This patch fixes the menu and admin settings page.

Holy cow, I've totally missed these. I'll try to do a review of this soon.

Interestingly enough, I had just been thinking about putting some more work into this module.

Thanks for the work so far.

These patches should fully upgrade the module to D6. The only issue now is how to use it.

#9

Are there any updates about moving this to Drupal 6? I currently use Embedded Media Field to bring my videos in from Youtube but client wants Youtube's comments to be pulled in (and if possible for the site's comments to be posted on Youtube as well). I've done research and this module has the most promise but I am using Drupal 6 on a near-to-production site.

If anyone knows a better solution for my situation, it will be appreciated!

You should just be able to apply the last patch and update it that way. As for continuing updates, who knows. This seems as if this module has fallen off. I'm using Feeds to pull in YouTube videos and embed them. You might be able to pull in comments that way, but not post.

I haven't even used this module since I took the time to make a patch.
